Abstract
2-Benzylcyclohexylamine was synthesized through three-step process employing firstly the synthesis of 2-benzylidenecyclohexanone using benzaldehyde and cyclohexanone as the staring material based on Aldol Reaction, then the 2-benzylcyclohexanone was obtained by catalytic reduction from 2-benzylidenecyclohexanone, finally the objective product 2-benzylcyclohexylamine was prepared through reductive amination reaction, the overall yield reached 77.8%. The effects of molar ratio of reactants and the reaction temperature on the synthesis of 2-benzylcyclohexanone as well as the dosage of catalyst on the hydrogenation reaction were discussed. Its structure was characterized by using IR and GCMS.
