ABSTRACT:
A process for selectively hydrogenating a dinitrile to an aminonitrile is provided. The process comprises contacting a dinitrile with a hydrogen-containing fluid in the presence of a solvent and a metal catalyst in which the solvent comprises liquid ammonia, an alcohol, ammonium hydroxide, or combinations thereof and the metal catalyst comprises nickel and iron and can be supported on an inorganic support such as, for example, magnesium oxide.
