Abstract

Abstract Process for the production of aliphatic amines by reaction of a C 1 -C 5 alcohol or ether with ammonia in the presence of a catalyst comprising a crystalline aluminosilicate having the structure of ZSM-5, ZSM-11 or ZSM-21, said reaction being effected at a temperature between about 300° and about 500° C., a pressure between atmospheric and 1000 psig with the relative feed rates, expressed in grams per hour, of (1) alcohol or ether and (2) ammonia being within the approximate range of 1:1 to 5:1.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 11
Claim 1
Independent Claim 95 words
A process for the selective production of primary aliphatic amines over secondary and tertiary amines by reaction of an ether characterized by the formula R--O--R' where R and R' are independently alkyl of 2 to 5 carbon atoms, with ammonia in the presence of a crystalline aluminosilicate catalyst of ZSM-5, ZSM-11 or ZSM-21 at a temperature between about 300° and about 500° C; a pressure between about 14.7 and 1000 psig with the relative feed rates, expressed in grams per hour of (1) ether and (2) ammonia being within the range of 1:1 to 5:1.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 95 words
A process for the selective production of primary aliphatic amines over secondary and tertiary amines by reaction of an ether characterized by the formula R--O--R' where R and R' are independently alkyl of 2 to 5 carbon atoms, with ammonia in the presence of a crystalline aluminosilicate catalyst of ZSM-5, ZSM-11 or ZSM-21 at a temperature between about 300° and about 500° C; a pressure between about 14.7 and 1000 psig with the relative feed rates, expressed in grams per hour of (1) ether and (2) ammonia being within the range of 1:1 to 5:1.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 19 words
The process of claim 1 wherein said crystalline aluminosilicate is characterized by a silica/alumina ratio in excess of 30.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 53 words
