Abstract: A process for producing aliphatic amines which comprises reacting an aliphatic alcohol or an aliphatic aldehyde with an aminating agent selected from the group consisting of ammonia, a primary amine and a secondary amine in the liquid phase in the presence of an unsupported catalyst consisting essentially of (1) copper oxide or copper hydroxide (2) nickel oxide or nickel hydroxide, and, optionally, (3) an oxide or an hydroxide of a Group II A metal.

Abstract: A novel class of severely sterically hindered tertiary amino compounds having a pK.sub.a value at 20.degree. C. greater than 8.6, preferably ranging from 9.3 to about 10.6, and a cumulative -E.sub.s value of at least 1.9 are found to be useful in selective removal of H.sub.2 S from a normally gaseous mixture containing H.sub.2 S and CO.sub.2.

Abstract: A process for preparing an N-alkylene-diamine by contacting an alkylene diamine with an aliphatic aldehyde in a reaction solvent in the presence of hydrogen under pressure and an platinum group metal, which comprises gradually adding the aliphatic aldehyde to the alkylene diamine. The process according to the present invention provides a high conversion of the alkylene diamine and a high selectivity to the N-alkyl-alkylene-diamine.
Abstract: There are disclosed the chemical compound N,N-dimethyl-N'-isobutyl-N'-.beta.-hydroxyethyl-propylenediamine, a process for the preparation thereof and its use.
Abstract: This invention concerns the synthesis of linear alkyl primary amines from a-olefins via an oxoamination process comprising (a) hydrogen and carbon monoxide addition to olefinic substrates to obtain aldehyde-containing compounds in the presence of ligand-stabilized platinum(II) halide catalysts with Group IVB metal halide cocatalysts, and (b) reductive amination of said aldehydic intermediates in the presence of oxide-supported, nickel catalysts.
Abstract: Aminomethylation of olefins which employs a homogeneous catalyst which is a solution in a suitable solvent of mixed ruthenium and iron carbonyls. The overall reaction may be represented as follows: ##STR1## where R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 are hydrogen or essentially hydrocarbon groups. The reaction proceeds by way of an aldehyde intermediate. Accordingly, the starting material may be an aldehyde instead of an olefin.
