secondary or tertiary amine depending on the amide H2CH2CN CH2,NH2 HO CH,CHaNH iAH Amines can also be prepared by the process of reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones. An aldehyde or ketone will react with ammonia to give an intermediate imine. Reduction of this imine with Raney Ni/H, gives the corresponding amine CH2CH2NH2 H2/Raney Ni NH3 H2/Raney Ni Primary and secondary amines can also be utilized in reductie amination reactions, typically using cyanoborohydride(NaBh, CN) to trap the intermediate ammonium lonsecondary or tertiary amine, depending on the amide.
