Diamines with neighbour nitrogen atoms have been used as base catalysts in the Knoevenagel condensation reaction between benzaldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetoacetate. The catalytic results show that a good basic catalyst requires a combination of two factors: high proton affinity and the ability to return the proton to the oxoanion intermediate. Computational chemistry calculations show this by characterizing the reactants, products, and transition states and by calculating the activation energies of the different reaction steps. A diamine, di(3-methylpiperidine)methane (B), has been found with a higher catalytic activity than DMAN despite its lower proton affinity, demonstrating that not only the proton affinity, but also the steric ability to abstract the protons, are important in explaining the catalytic results.
Suppression of the evolution of hydrogen sulfide gases from petroleum residua

, (2008/06/13)
Hydrogen sulfide gas evolution during storage or transport of petroleum residua are suppressed by the incorporation of an effective amount of a diamine of the formula wherein R1, R2, R3, and R4 are independently an alkyl radical containing 1 to 14 carbon atoms, (CH2)n-OR6 or cycloalkyl containing 5 or 6 carbon atoms and R5 is hydrogen or methyl. R1 and R2 and R3 and R4 can be alkylene groups joined together with their respective adjacent N to form a heterocyclic ring. R6 is hydrogen or an alkyl radical having 1 to 5 carbon atoms and n is an integer of 1 to 5.
