Abstract

Secondary cyclic amines are prepared by treating a primary cyclic amine with an aliphatic carbinol in the presence of a catalyst comprising a mixture of metallic copper, alumina, and one or more difficulty reducible metal oxides. The alumina is preferably activated alumina. The other difficulty reducible metal oxide used acts as an activator and for this the metals of Group II are specially advantageous. Examples of suitable oxides in decreasing order of preference are the oxides of calcium, zinc, chromium, magnesium, ferrous iron, cadmium, and potassium. Preferred amounts of copper in the catalyst comprises from 2-20 per cent. The molar ratio of activating difficulty reducible oxide to copper is from 0.2 : 1 to 4 : 1. The catalyst is prepared by impregnating alumina with a salt of copper and of the difficulty reducible metal oxide selected, and calcining at 250-400 DEG C. If desired the catalyst may be supported on a carrier. The reaction of the amine with the alcohol takes place at 200-275 DEG C., preferably as a continuous process. It is stated that by the use of the special catalysts according to the invention, and by the use of an excess of alcohol, the substantial total suppression of the formation of tertiary amines is possible. Amines mentioned which may be produced according to the invention include N-methylaniline, other N-alkylanilines, N-alkyltoluidines, N - alkylnaphthylamines, N - alkylcyclohexylamines, and secondary heterocyclic amines. When unsaturated alcohols are used such as allyl and methallyl alcohols, the product is a saturated amine if the treatment is carried out in the presence of hydrogen. Polyhydroxy alcohols, such as glycol and diethylene glycol may also be used. Examples of varying reaction conditions and different catalysts are given.
