Dibenzylamine is an organic compound with the formula (C6H5CH2)2NH. It is classified as a secondary amine, being the middle member of the series that includes the primary amine benzylamine (C6H5CH2NH2) and the tertiary amine tribenzylamine ((C6H5CH2)3N). It is a colorless oily substance with a faint ammonia-like odor. It is produced as a side product in the hydrogenation of benzonitrile:

2 C6H5CN + 4 H2 → NH3 + (C6H5CH2)2NH
