1,3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane (1,3-BAC) is a mixture of three stereoisomeric chemical compounds from the group of aliphatic amines .

When "1,3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane" without in this article or in the scientific literature the name prefix is needed is always a mixture of equal parts of ( S , S ) form and ( R , R ) form and changing proportions of the meso form meant (see section stereochemistry).

presentation

1,3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane can be prepared by hydrogenating various compounds, for example from m- xylylenediamine , from 1,3- benzenedicarbonitrile or from dicyanocyclohexane .

use

1,3-Bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane is used industrially as a hardener for epoxy resins , as a raw material for the production of polyamides and isocyanates , as a rubber chemical, for paper processing agents , in fiber treatment agents and in cleaning agents.

Stereoisomers

1,3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane contains two equally substituted stereocenters, consequently there are three stereoisomers:

  • ( S , S ) -1,3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane
  • ( R , R ) -1,3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane
  • meso -1,3-bis (aminomethyl) cyclohexane

The technical product is a mixture of these three isomers.
