- Hydrogenation and: N-Alkylation of anilines and imines via transfer hydrogenation with homogeneous nickel compounds
-
The nickel-catalyzed N-Alkylation of a variety of arylamines via transfer hydrogenation in the absence of pressurized hydrogen and basic or acidic additives was achieved in a tandem reaction. This process was further extended to the CN bond reduction and N-Alkylation of a variety of imines with ethanol, the latter acting as a hydrogen and acetaldehyde source, which allowed for the reduction and subsequent condensation to yield the corresponding N-Alkylated products.

- A strategy of two-step tandem catalysis towards direct N-alkylation of nitroarenes with ethanol via facile fabricated novel Co-based catalysts derived from coordination polymers
-
Three novel N-doped carbon supported Co/Co3O4 catalysts, namely, Co@CN-hmta, Co@CN-larg and Co-Co3O4@CN-bipy, with sheet-, worm-, honeycomb-like morphologies respectively, have been fabricated by the pyrolysis of well-defined coordination polymers (CPs). Upon the as-prepared catalysts were applied for the reaction of N-alkylation of nitroarenes with ethanol, a direct two-step tandem reaction is realized, in which the Co@CN-hmta delivers 100% conversion/selectivity of N-ethylaniline/N,N-diethylaniline from the direct N-alkylation of nitroarenes with ethanol. The kinetic studies were conducted to confirm that the N-alkylation of aniline with ethanol is the rate-determining step in the two-step tandem reaction. The SEM/EDX, XRD, Raman, TEM, XPS, and CO2-TPD characterization results have revealed that sizes and dispersion of metallic Co, amount of structural defects and surface Lewis basicity towards three catalysts can be tuned by changing the structures of Co-based CPs designed by different organic linkers, which may also help to understand the preparation of industrial catalysts on a molecular level. The optimized Co@CN-hmta catalyst is easily recycled by using the external magnet for successive reuses without any loss in both activity and selectivity. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first carbon-nitrogen species supported Co/Co3O4 catalysts derived from the CPs, which could effectively catalyzed the N-alkylation of nitroarenes with ethanol to produce the secondary amines and/or tertiary amines. This low-cost, recyclable and easy scale-up N-doped carbon supported catalyst may be of potential application in various heterogeneous catalytic reactions.

- Ru-Catalyzed Deoxygenative Transfer Hydrogenation of Amides to Amines with Formic Acid/Triethylamine
-
A ruthenium(II)-catalyzed deoxygenative transfer hydrogenation of amides to amines using HCO2H/NEt3 as the reducing agent is reported for the first time. The catalyst system consisting of [Ru(2-methylallyl)2(COD)], 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl) ethane (triphos) and Bis(trifluoromethane sulfonimide) (HNTf2) performed well for deoxygenative reduction of various secondary and tertiary amides into the corresponding amines in high yields with excellent selectivities, and exhibits high tolerance toward functional groups including those that are reduction-sensitive. The choice of hydrogen source and acid co-catalyst is critical for catalysis. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reductive amination of the in situ generated alcohol and amine via borrowing hydrogen is the dominant pathway. (Figure presented.).

- B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed Deoxygenative Reduction of Amides to Amines with Ammonia Borane
-
The first B(C6F5)3-catalyzed deoxygenative reduction of amides into the corresponding amines with readily accessible and stable ammonia borane (AB) as a reducing agent under mild reaction conditions is reported. This metal-free protocol provides facile access to a wide range of structurally diverse amine products in good to excellent yields, and various functional groups including those that are reduction-sensitive were well tolerated. This new method is also applicable to chiral amide substrates without erosion of the enantiomeric purity. The role of BF3 ? OEt2 co-catalyst in this reaction is to activate the amide carbonyl group via the in situ formation of an amide-boron adduct. (Figure presented.).

- A sound shielding through the level three-stage amine instead new method should be secondary amine
-
The invention discloses a novel method for preparing secondary amine by a reaction of primary amine and tertiary amine. The method comprises the following steps of 1, adding primary amine and tertiary amine into a reaction container according to a mole ratio of primary amine to tertiary amine of 1: 3, adding [(Bt)2*Ir*P(nBu)3]OTf as a catalyst (wherein Bt represents phenylbenzothiazole) into the reaction container, adding an organic solvent into the reaction container, and carrying out a reaction process at a temperature of 120-160 DEG C for 6-12h, wherein a mole ratio of primary amine, tertiary amine to catalyst is 1: 3: 0.01, and 2, carrying out purification by a silica gel column of 200-300 meshes, pre-leaching the silica gel column by 20-50mL of petroleum ether, carrying out elution on the leacheate at a leacheate flowing rate of 1-2mL/min for 3-6h so that the solvent is removed and the corresponding secondary amine product is obtained. A research result shows that the novel method for producing secondary amine by a reaction of primary amine and tertiary amine has the characteristics of mild conditions, high conversion rate and no pollutant. The method solves the problems of the existing secondary amine synthesis method and improves secondary amine synthesis.

- Towards a general ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of secondary and tertiary amides to amines
-
A broad range of secondary and tertiary amides has been hydrogenated to the corresponding amines under mild conditions using an in situ catalyst generated by combining [Ru(acac)3], 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane (Triphos) and Yb(OTf)3. The presence of the metal triflate allows to mitigate reaction conditions compared to previous reports thus improving yields and selectivities in the desired amines. The excellent isolated yields of two scale-up experiments corroborate the feasibility of the reaction protocol. Control experiments indicate that, after the initial reduction of the amide carbonyl group, the reaction proceeds through the reductive amination of the alcohol with the amine arising from collapse of the intermediate hemiaminal.

A convenient, practical and green N-alkylation of amines has been accomplished by applying readily available carboxylic acids in the presence of molecular hydrogen. Applying an in situ formed ruthenium/triphos complex and an organic acid as cocatalyst, a broad range of alkylated secondary and tertiary amines are obtained in good to excellent yields. This novel method is also successfully applied for the synthesis of unsymmetrically substituted N-methyl/alkyl anilines through a direct three-component coupling reaction of the corresponding amines, carboxylic acids, and CO2 as a C1 source.

- Synthesis, structures of benzoxazolyl iridium(III) complexes, and applications on C-C and C-N bond formation reactions under solvent-free conditions: Catalytic activity enhanced by noncoordinating anion without silver effect
-
Several new bisbenzoxazolyl iridium(III) complexes have been synthesized and characterized through X-ray crystallography. These complexes exhibit excellent catalytic activity in C-C and C-N bond formation reactions from the alkylation of amine with amine, amine with alcohol, ketone with alcohol, and alcohol with alcohol through a borrowing hydrogen reaction. Moreover, these iridium(III) complexes are effective catalysts for the alkylation of amine with alcohol and ketone with alcohol under solvent-free conditions. The catalytic activity of these complexes is greatly enhanced by noncoordinating, while the experiments have excluded the possibility of a "silver effect" (bimetallic catalysis or silver-assisted metal catalysis) from the experiments.

- Homogeneous catalytic hydrogenation of amides to amines
-
Hydrogenation of amides in the presence of [Ru(acac)3] (acacH=2,4-pentanedione), triphos [1,1,1-tris- (diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane] and methanesulfonic acid (MSA) produces secondary and tertiary amines with selectivities as high as 93 % provided that there is at least one aromatic ring on N. The system is also active for the synthesis of primary amines. In an attempt to probe the role of MSA and the mechanism of the reaction, a range of methanesulfonato complexes has been prepared from prepared from [Ru(acac) 3], triphos and MSA, or from reactions of [RuX-(OAc)(triphos)] (X=H or OAc) or [RuH2(CO)(triphos)] with MSA. Crys-tallographically characterised complexes include: [Ru(OAc-κ1O) 2(H2O)-(triphos)], [Ru(OAc-κ2O,O') (CH3SO3-κ1O)(triphos)], [Ru(CH 3SO3-κ1O)2-(H 2O)(triphos)] and [Ru2(μ-CH3SO 3)3-(triphos)2][CH3SO3], whereas other complexes, such as [Ru(OAc-κ1O)(OAc- κ2O,O')(triphos)],[Ru(CH3SO3- κ1O)(CH3SO3-κ2O,O')- (triphos)], H[Ru(CH3SO3-κ1O) 3-(triphos)], [RuH(CH3SO3-κ1O) (CO)-(triphos)] and [RuH(CH3SO3-k2O,O')- (triphos)] have been characterised spectroscopically. The interactions between these various complexes and their relevance to the catalytic reactions are discussed.
