Abstract

Disclosed are (1) a method for preparing an aromatic secondary amino compound which comprises reacting an N-cyclohexylideneamino compound in the presence of a hydrogen moving catalyst and a hydrogen acceptor by the use of a sulfur-free polar solvent and/or a cocatalyst, and (2) a method for preparing an aromatic secondary amino compound which comprises reacting cyclohexanone or a nucleus-substituted cyclohexanone, an amine and a nitro compound corresponding to the amine in a sulfur-free polar solvent in the presence of a hydrogen moving catalyst, a cocatalyst being added or not added. In a further aspect, a method is provided for the preparation of aminodiphenylamine by reacting phenylenediamine and cyclohexanone in the presence of a hydrogen transfer catalyst in a sulfur-free polar solvent while using nitroaniline as a hydrogen acceptor.
