Tertiary α,ω-diamines are selectively prepared in high yields by the reaction of α,ω-diolefins with secondary amines, carbon monoxide and hydrogen in the presence of [Rh(cod)Cl]2 as a catalyst precursor. This one-pot synthesis proceeds via a hydroformylation-amine condensation-reduction sequence and leads to a mixture of n,n-, n,iso-, and iso,iso-products.
