Uses and applications
What the substance is used for, by industry and function
In the manufacture of mercurial diuretics.
Pharmaceutical intermediate, organic synthesis.
/Allylamine/ is used as a solvent and in organic synthesis, including the synthesis of rubber, mercurial diuretics, sedatives, and antiseptics. It is also used in the synthesis of ion-exchange resins.
Synthesis of ion-exchange resins and for water-dispersible copolymers useful for water purification and as flocculating agents.
Allylamine is useful as a corrosion inhibitor when pickling steel in acid.
Industrial uses: Other, Intermediate.
Consumer uses: Other, Intermediate.
How it is made
Pure allylamine can be prepared by hydrolysis of allyl isothiocyanate, thermal cleavage of allyl dithiocarbamate, hydrolysis of diallyl cyanamide, or ammonolysis of triallylamine. Allylamine may be produced also by electroreduction of acrylonitrile on lead cathodes.
/Allylamine/ ... can be synthesized by reaction of allyl chloride with ammonia at the comparatively high temperature of 50-100 °C, or at lower temperatures using CuCl2 or CuCl as the catalyst. In all such methods, a mixture of monoallyl, diallyl, and triallyl amines is obtained.

For selectively obtaining monoallylamine, AAm, hydrolysis of by hydrochloric acid is used.
The oldest technology for producing amines is the reaction of ammonia with an alkyl halide. This method is still of commercial importance for the manufacture of allylamines.
