Diallylamine is the organic compound with the formula HN(CH₂CH=CH₂)₂. It is a colorless liquid with an ammonia-like odor. It is multifunctional, featuring a secondary amine and two alkene groups. Diallylamine is used in the production of N,N-diallyldichloroacetamide (dichlormid) and N,N-diallyldimethylammonium chloride.

Preparation

It is produced commercially by partial hydrogenation of acrylonitrile:

2 NCCH=CH₂ + 4 H₂ → HN(CH₂CH=CH₂)₂ + NH₃

A laboratory route to diallylamine entails diallylation of calcium cyanamide followed by decyanation of the product.
