hydrogenation of imine

[Pussy_Kurt]

Has anyome experince about catalytic rediction of imines? After condesation of P2P and Methylamine, which catalyst is to prefer, when the reaction conditions should be at 3 ATM and about room temperatures? Does anyone tried Pt/C?

Hydrogen source in situ or hydrogen gas with catalyst will reduce imine. For your conditions you can use Pd/C 5%, PtO2, but only PtO2 more safe
