Octa-2,7-dienyl-1-amine and octa-1,7-dienyl-3-amine, from which octyl-1-amine can be prepared, are prepared selectively by telomerizing butadiene and ammonia in a two-phase system, the catalyst being used in an aqueous phase and an organic medium which is immiscible or only slightly miscible with water being employed as the second phase.\! |
