INTRODUCTION

n-Propylamine, known as propylamine in trade, is a versatile primary amine with a lone pair of electrons on nitrogen atom. It makes the amino group reactive and the amine thus undergoes chiefly nucleophilic substitution reactions with substrate.

Manufacture

Propylamine is commercially produced from propionaldehyde through a reductive ammoniation reaction with ammonia. Di-n-propylamine is formed as by-product.
