Abstract

1 : 4-Dicyanobutene is prepared by the reaction in the presence of a copper compound of hydrogen cyanide and a compound of the formula CH2R-CHR1CH=CH2 where R and R1 may be OH, CN, halogen or together may be oxygen and may be the same or different provided both are not halogen or CN. The product 1 : 4-dicyanobutene may be reduced to hexamethylene diamine. In examples (1) 1 : 2-epoxybutene-3 reacts with hydrogen cyanide in the presence of cuprous chloride to give 1 : 4-dicyanobutene and (2) 1 : 2-dihydroxybutene-3; (3) 1-cyano-2-hydroxybutene-3; (4) 2-cyano-1-hydroxybutene-3 and (5) 1-chloro-2-hydroxybutene-3 or 1-hydroxy-2-chlorobutene-3 react as in (1) to give the same product. 1-Cyano-2-hydroxybutene-3 is prepared by the reaction of hydrogen cyanide on 1 : 2-epoxybutene-3 in an aqueous suspension of calcium hydroxide. 2-Cyano-1-hydroxybutene-3 is prepared by the action of sodium cyanide on 2-chloro-1-hydroxybutene-3 in aqueous alcohol. The Provisional Specification states that R and R1 may be -O Acyl groups.
