Zusammenfassung:PCT No. PCT/NL92/00230 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 17, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 17, 1994 PCT Filed Dec. 17, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/12073 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 24, 1993The invention relates to a process for the preparation of an aminonitrile by partially hydrogenating a nitrile compound with two or more nitrile groups in the presence of a catalyst which contains a metal from group 8 of the periodic system of the elements, the hydrogenation being carried out under water-free reaction conditions and the catalyst having been treated with an alkanolate. Preferably, the catalyst is a Raney nickel or Raney cobalt catalyst which has been pretreated with an alkali metal alkanolate or an earth alkali metal alkanolate such as sodium or potassium methanolate.
