摘要:
This invention relates to an improvement in a process for the catalytic hydrogenation of aromatic amines and to the resultant catalyst. The basic process for hydrogenating both mononuclear and polynuclear aromatic amines comprises contacting an aromatic amine with hydrogen in the presence of a rhodium catalyst under conditions for effecting ring hydrogenation. The improvement in the ring hydrogenation process resides in the use of a rhodium catalyst carried on a lithium aluminate support. Often ruthenium is included.
摘要:
A process for the production of predominantly primary and secondary amines and little or no tertiary amines by the reductive amination of aliphatic alcohols using a metal exchanged crystalline aluminosilicate catalyst. The catalyst has a silica/alumina ratio ranging from about 10:1 to 40:1, contains about 1 to 10% by weight of cobalt or nickel and about 0.05 to 5% by weight of at least one other metal. High conversion rates are achieved at moderate temperatures and pressures.

The present invention relates to processes for the catalytic hydrogenation of aromatic amines to their acyclic counterparts using a ruthenium catalyst on a lithium aluminate support. The hydrogenation process comprises contacting an aromatic amine with hydrogen in the presence of a ruthenium catalyst under temperature and pressure conditions suitable to effect ring hydrogenation. The process is especially useful for hydrogenating aniline to cyclohexylamine.
摘要:
A process for the production of aliphatic amines by reacting aliphatic alcohols with an amino compound in the presence of a catalyst containing at least two inter-dispersed metals, in a multi-metallic structure, in which at least one of the metals is nickel or cobalt, and at least one other metal is palladium, platinum, rhodium, ruthenium, or copper.

This invention relates to an isomerization process wherein hydrogenated aromatic amines are substantially isomerized to their thermodynamic form. These hydrogenated aromatic amines are presented by the formulas: ##STR1## wherein R is hydrogen or C.sub.1-6 aliphatic, R1 and R2 are hydrogen or C.sub.1-6 aliphatic, A is C.sub.1-4 or NH; n is 0-2, x is 1-3 and y is 1 to 2 except the sum of the y groups in Formula I may be 1.The improvement in the process comprises using a catalytic system comprising cobalt preferably in combination with another Group VIII metal selected from rhodium, ruthenium, platinum, and palladium and the metal, copper. Preferably the catalyst comprises cobalt in combination with rhodium or ruthenium wherein the weight ratio of cobalt to rhodium or ruthenium, calculated on metal content, is from about 0.2 to 100 weight parts cobalt per weight part rhodium or ruthenium and the isomerization is carried out in the presence of hydrogen.

The invention is directed to an improvement in a catalytic process for the ring hydrogenation of a methylenedianiline feedstock, including crude methylenedianiline. One component of the improvement is a pretreatment process which resides in passing the crude methylenedianiline feedstock over a ruthenium catalyst carried on a fixed bed support, cooling without venting, and then hydrogenation of the pretreated crude methylenedianiline feedstock over a rhodium catalyst or a mixed Rh/Ru catalyst carried on a monolith support and carrying out the ring hydrogenation in a batch reaction. Another component in the improvement is the employment of a catalyst comprised of rhodium and ruthenium carried on a monolith support.
