Abstract

A catalyst comprises, based on the total weight of the catalyst, PA1 0.1-6% by weight of cobalt, nickel or a mixture thereof, PA1 0.001-25% by weight of ruthenium, PA1 0-10% by weight of copper and PA1 0-5% by weight of promoters on a porous metal oxide carrier. It preferably comprises 0.1-3% by weight of cobalt and 0.1-3% by weight of nickel. It can be used in hydrogenation reactions, dehydrogenation reactions or hydrogenation/dehydrogenation reactions, in particular in the amination of alkylene oxides, alcohols, aldehydes or ketones with ammonia or primary or secondary amines.
