Abstract
An .alpha.-aminonitrile compound derived from the reaction, in the presence of a cyanide source of (1) a bisulfite adduct of a carbonyl compound selected from the group consisting of an aldehyde and a ketone with (2) a fatty alkyl alkylene diamine containing two reactible amino functionalities which is of the formula RNHR.sub.1 NH.sub.2, where R is fatty alkyl and R.sub.1 is lower alkylene of up to six carbon atoms.
