- Selective C-C bonds formation, N-alkylation and benzo[d]imidazoles synthesis by a recyclable zinc composite
-
Earth abundant metals are much less expensive, promising, valuable metals and could be served as catalysts for the borrowing hydrogen reaction, dehydrogenation and heterocycles synthesis, instead of noble metals. The uniformly dispersed zinc composites were designed, synthesized and carefully characterized by means of XPS, EDS, TEM and XRD. The resulting zinc composite showed good catalytic activity for the N-alkylation of amines with amines, ketones with alcohols in water under base-free conditions, while unsaturated carbonyl compounds could also be synthesized by tuning the reaction conditions. Importantly, it was the first time to realize the synthesis of 2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole derivatives by using this zinc composite under green conditions. Meanwhile, this zinc catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for at least five times.

- Continuous flow heterogeneous catalytic reductive aminations under aqueous micellar conditions enabled by an oscillatory plug flow reactor
-
Despite the fact that continuous flow processing exhibits well-established technical advances, aqueous micellar chemistry, a field that has proven extremely useful in shifting organic synthesis to sustainable water-based media, has mostly been explored under conventional batch-based conditions. This is particularly because of the fact that the reliable handling of slurries and suspensions in flow has been considered as a significant technical challenge. Herein, we demonstrate that the strategic application of an oscillatory plug flow reactor enables heterogeneous catalytic reductive aminations in aqueous micellar media enhancing mass transport and facilitating process simplicity, stability and scalability. The micellar flow process enabled a broad range of substrates, including amino acid derivatives, to be successfully transformed under reasonably mild conditions utilizing only very low amounts of Pd/C as a readily available heterogeneous catalyst. The preparative capabilities of the process along with the recyclability of the heterogenous catalyst and the aqueous reaction media were also demonstrated. This journal is

- Iron-Catalyzed Oxidative Amination of Benzylic C(sp3)–H Bonds with Anilines
-
Iron-catalyzed oxidative amination of benzylic C(sp3)–H bonds with anilines bearing electron-withdrawing groups (EWGs) or electron-donating groups (EDGs) is realized based on simple variations of N-substituents on imidazolium cations in novel ionic Fe(III) complexes. The structural modification of the imidazolium cation resulted in regulation of the redox potential and the catalytic performance of the iron metal center. Using DTBP as oxidant, [HItBu][FeBr4] showed the highest catalytic activity for anilines bearing EWGs, while [HIPym][FeBr4] was more efficient for EDG-substituted anilines. This work provides alternative access to benzylamines with the advantages of both a wide substrate scope and iron catalysis.

- [(PPh3)2NiCl2]-Catalyzed C-N bond formation reaction via borrowing hydrogen strategy: Access to diverse secondary amines and quinolines
-
Commercially available [(PPh3)2NiCl2] was found to be an efficient catalyst for the mono-N-alkylation of (hetero)- A romatic amines, employing alcohols to deliver diverse secondary amines, including the drug intermediates chloropyramine (5b) and mepyramine (5c), in excellent yields (up to 97%) via the borrowing hydrogen strategy. This method shows a superior activity (TON up to 10000) with a broad substrate scope at a low catalyst loading of 1 mol % and a short reaction time. Further, this strategy is also successful in accessing various quinoline derivatives following the acceptorless dehydrogenation pathway.

- Silver/manganese dioxide nanorod catalyzed hydrogen-borrowing reactions and tert-butyl ester synthesis
-
Silver/manganese dioxide (Ag@MnO2) nanorods are synthesized and characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. It was discovered that Ag@MnO2 nanorods can realize hydrogen-borrowing reactions in high yields and are also effective for the synthesis of tert-butyl esters from aryl cyanides and tert-butyl hydroperoxide in a short period of time. Mechanistic experiments revealed that this catalytic system acts as a Lewis acid in hydrogen-borrowing reactions, while the synthesis of tert-butyl esters occurs through a radical pathway. This is the first report on the excellent catalytic activity of Ag@MnO2 nanorods as a catalyst.

- A Fe single atom on N,S-doped carbon catalyst for performing N-alkylation of aromatic amines under solvent-free conditions
-
A green and gram-scale strategy has been developed for the synthesis of Fe single atom/N,S-doped carbon catalyst (Fe20-SA@NSC) via the pyrolysis of polyaniline (PAN)-modified Fe,S-doped ZIFs, in which the synthesis of ZIFs can be accomplished in water at room temperature. The as-prepared catalyst exhibits superior activity in the N-alkylation of amines with alcohols via a borrowing strategy under solvent-free conditions (TOF up to 13.9 h-1). Based on the HAADF-STEM and XAFS results, Fe in this material is dispersed as the single-atom Fe1-N4S1 site. According to the experimental and theoretical calculation results, the Fe1-N4S1 site displays a better borrowing hydrogen ability than other Fe sites owing to its higher electron density. In addition, this catalyst has excellent stability and recyclability, and no obvious loss in activity is observed after 7 runs.

- Convenient and Reusable Manganese-Based Nanocatalyst for Amination of Alcohols
-
The development of new sustainable nanocatalytic systems for green chemical synthesis is a growing area in chemical science. Herein, a reusable heterogeneous N-doped graphene-based manganese nanocatalyst (Mn@NrGO) for selective N-alkylation of amines with alcohols is described. Mechanistic studies illustrate that the catalytic reaction follows a domino dehydrogenation-condensation-hydrogenation sequence of alcohols and amines with the formation of water as the sole by-product. The scope of the reaction is extended to the synthesis of pharmaceutically important N-alkylated amine intermediates. The heterogeneous nature of the catalyst made it easy to separate for long-term performance, and the recycling study revealed that the catalyst was robust and retained its activity after several recycling experiments.

Multi-amino groups and nitrogen donors compound was discovered as an organocatalyst for N-alkylation of alcohols with amines in the presence of Mo(CO)6. The Mo(CO)6/organocatalyst binary system has shown to be a highly active catalyst for the N-alkylation reaction between alcohols and amines with excellent tolerance of variable starting materials bearing different functional groups. Of particular note, this method possessing a superiority selectivity in the synthesis of N-alkylated amines or imines, which can be controlled by the reaction temperature. The cooperative catalysis mechanism in combination of Mo(CO)6 with organocatalyst was elucidated by control experiments.

- Efficient photocatalytic one-pot hydrogenation and N-alkylation of nitrobenzenes/benzonitriles with alcohols over Pd/MOFs: Effect of the crystal morphology & “quasi-MOF” structure
-
One-pot multi-step reactions over visible-light induced catalysis feature the sustainable green process. Here, ligand structure change and 2-MI coordinated modulation were adapted to adjust the crystal size, morphology and crystalline structure of Fe-MOFs; double solvent impregnation was employed for the Pd loading; “quasi-MOF” materials with retained morphology were formed with calcination under N2. Above modified materials were employed as multifunctional photocatalysts for highly efficient one-pot hydrogenation and N-alkylation of nitrobenzenes or benzonitriles with alcohols after in situ Pd photoreduction. Photocatalytic performance was evidently affected by the Fe-MOFs crystal size, morphology, crystalline structure alteration and “quasi-MOF” construction. One-pot hydrogenation and N-alkylation of benzonitriles with alcohols was achieved with excellent catalytic performance firstly in heteroegeneous catalysis. Reaction mechanism was proposed with the assistance of in situ DRIFTS.

- Zinc-Catalyzed N-Alkylation of Aromatic Amines with Alcohols: A Ligand-Free Approach

An efficient zinc-catalyzed N-alkylation reaction of aromatic amines was achieved using aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic alcohols as the alkylating reagent. A variety of aniline derivatives, including heteroaromatic amines, underwent the N-alkylation reaction and furnished the corresponding monoalkylated products in good to excellent yields. The application of the reaction is also further demonstrated by the synthesis of a 2-phenylquinoline derivative from acetophenone and 2-aminobenzyl alcohol. Deuterium labeling experiments show that the reaction proceeds via a borrowing hydrogen process. (Figure presented.).

All the Ru(II) complexes (1–4) were characterized by IR, NMR spectroscopies, ESI-mass spectrometry and elemental analyses. The solid-state structures of Ru(II) complexes (2 and 3) were established by single crystal X-ray analyses and revealed distorted octahedral geometries around the ruthenium(II) ion and mono anionic bidentate N^N coordination mode for hydrazine ligand. The Ru(II) complexes 2 and 3 were also analyzed using Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT calculations. Moreover, all the complexes (1–4) were utilized in the N-alkylation reactions of amines using alcohol. Complex 3 was found to be highly active towards N-alkylation of different aromatic amines with alcohol.

- Alcohol Amination Catalyzed by Copper Powder as a Self-Supported Catalyst
-
Catalytic alcohol amination is a sustainable reaction for N-alkyl amine synthesis. Homogeneous and supported copper catalysts have long been studied for this reaction and have given some impressive results. In this study, copper powder is found to behave as an active catalyst for alcohol amination, giving better catalytic performance than metal-oxide-supported nanocopper catalysts. Catalyst characterization suggests that the copper powder can be considered as a self-supported nanocopper catalyst (i.e., nanocopper supported on copper particles). These results might promote the study of unsupported transition metal powders in sustainable catalytic reactions.

- Unsymmetrical indazolyl-pyridinyl-triazole ligand-promoted highly active iridium complexes supported on hydrotalcite and its catalytic application in water

Herein, an indazolyl-pyridinyl-triazole ligand was synthesized and its iridium complex supported on hydrotalcite was characterized via X-ray power diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). This new heterogeneous catalyst bearing the unsymmetrical indazolyl-pyridinyl-triazole ligand exhibits high catalytic activity in water. Both functionalized amines and imines were obtained from the challenging selective reaction of benzylamines with arylamines through transfer hydrogenation and dehydrogenation under clean conditions. In particular, it was observed that this catalyst system showed good recovery performance in water. Mechanistic studies showed that this transformation occurs via amine dehydrogenation, hydrolysis and condensation processes. The direct capture of the reaction intermediate provides sufficient proof for this process.

The reactions of 2-azido-N-arylacrylamides with trifluoromethyl radicals and azidyl radicals were investigated by using Togni's reagent and Zhdankin's reagent as the source of these radicals. Under the catalysis of CuI, Togni's reagent was firstly converted into the trifluoromethyl radical, which then reacted with 2-azido-N-arylacrylamides to afford the corresponding α-(arylaminocarbonyl)iminyl radicals. The cyclization of the iminyl radicals delivered quinoxalin-2(1H)-one products in moderate yields. A similar reaction took place between 2-azido-N-arylacrylamides and the azidyl radical. In the latter cases, the reaction produced 3-azidomethyl and 3-cyano-subsituted quinoxalin-2(1H)-ones. This study not only helps elucidate the factors influencing the cyclization of α-(arylaminocarbonyl)iminyl radicals, but also provides a new approach towards quinoxalin-2-ones.

- Selective and recyclable rhodium nanocatalysts for the reductive N-alkylation of nitrobenzenes and amines with aldehydes
-
Rhodium nanocatalysts were prepared and applied for the reductive N-alkylation of nitrobenzenes and amines to the corresponding secondary amines with aldehydes and ketones. Functional nitrobenzenes, such as nitrobenzenes with F, Cl, Br, CH3O and CH3 were transformed to the corresponding secondary amines in good to excellent yields. Moreover, the Rh@CN catalyzed N-alkylation of a series of primary amines with aldehydes and ketones also gave the corresponding secondary amines in high yields. The Rh@CN is heterogeneous, and can be reusable several times (at least 4 times) for the reductive N-alkylation of nitroarenes.

- IMPROVED PROCESS FOR THE REDUCTIVE AMINATION AND SELECTIVE HYDROGENATION OF SUBSTRATES CONTAINING A SELECTED HALOGEN
-
Disclosed is a process for performing a chemical reaction selected from reductive amination and hydrogenation of a first functional group in an organic feed substrate, which feed substrate comprises at least one further functional group containing a halogen atom, wherein the halogen atom is selected from the list consisting of chlorine, bromine, iodine, and combinations thereof, in the presence of hydrogen and a heterogeneous catalyst comprising at least one metal from the list of Pd, Rh, and Ru, together with at least a second metal from the list consisting of Ag, Ni, Co, Sn, Cu and Au. The process is preferably applied for the reductive amination of 2-chloro- benzaldehyde to form 2-chloro-benzyldimethylamine, as an intermediate in the production of agrochemically active compounds and microbiocides of the methoximinophenylglyoxylic ester series. Further disclosed is a composition rich in 2-chloro-benzyldimethylamine, further comprising an amount of 2- chloro-benzyl alcohol and being low in chlorotoluene isomers.

- Utilizing Mor-DalPhos/palladium-catalyzed monoarylation in the multicomponent one-pot synthesis of indoles
-
The application of a Mor-DalPhos/palladium catalyst system in the one-pot, multicomponent assembly of substituted indoles from ortho-chlorohaloarenes, alkyl ketones (including acetone), and primary amines is reported. The described protocols offer improved substrate scope in all three reaction components, under more mild conditions and without the need for an additional drying agent. Also reported are the first examples of such multicomponent reactions where all reactants are combined at the start of the reaction, without the need for inert atmosphere reaction conditions.

- Insight into O2-promoted base-catalyzed N-alkylation of amines with alcohols
-
A highly efficient and practical transition-metal-free CsOH/O2 catalyst system was developed for the N-alkylation of amines with alcohols under argon. This strategy was compatible with many alcohols and exhibits excellent functional group tolerance. More significantly, the selective formation of secondary amines was achieved in excellent yields. The detailed mechanistic study gave a clear understanding of the role of base and oxygen in the catalytic cycle.

- Direct reductive amination using triethylsilane and catalytic bismuth(III) chloride
-
Direct reductive amination (DRA) using triethylsilane (TESH) and catalytic bismuth(III) chloride (BiCl3) is described for the first time. The use of TESH and BiCl3 provides easy handling, low cost, non-toxicity, and a mild Lewis acid activity, thereby meeting the demand for green and sustainable chemistry. The developed DRA is highly chemoselective and applicable to less-basic amines. The experimental results of this study revealed that the developed DRA could be catalyzed by BiCl3, which was gradually reduced to Bi(0) or bismuth with a low valency by TESH, but TESCl, Bi(0), and Bi(0) with TESCl catalyzed the DRA to some extent.

- Synthesis of new C2-symmetric chiral bisamides from (1S,2S)-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxylic acid
-
series of new C2-symmetric (1S,2S)-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxamides was synthesized from (1S,2S)-cyclohexane-1,2-dicarbonyl dichloride and N-benzyl-substituted aromatic amines, which were prepared from 2-aminopyridine, 2-chloroaniline, and 2-aminophenol via imine formation with benzaldehyde and subsequent reduction with NaBH4. (1S,2S)-N,N'-Dibenzyl-N,N'-bis[2-(benzyloxy)-phenyl]cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxamide was converted to (1S,2S)-N,N'-dibenzyl-N,N'-bis(2-hydroxyphenyl) cyclohexane-1,2-dicarboxamide via hydrogenolysis in the presence of Pd(OH)2 on active carbon powder.

- 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.

- New Iridium Catalysts for the Selective Alkylation of Amines by Alcohols under Mild Conditions and for the Synthesis of Quinolines by Acceptor-less Dehydrogenative Condensation
-
A novel family of iridium catalysts stabilised by P,N-ligands have been introduced. The ligands are based on imidazo[1,5-b]pyridazin-7-amines and can be synthesised with a broad variety of substitution patterns. The catalysts were synthesised quantitatively from the protonated ligands and a commercially available iridium precursor. The catalysts mediate the alkylation of amines by alcohols under mild conditions (70 °C). In addition, the synthesis of quinolines from secondary or primary alcohols and amino alcohols is reported. This sustainable synthesis proceeds through the liberation of two equivalents of water and two equivalents of dihydrogen. The investigations indicate that catalysts suitable for hydrogen autotransfer or borrowing hydrogen chemistry might also be suitable for acceptor-less dehydrogenative condensation reactions. Your H or mine? A family of catalysts that mediate the alkylation of amines by alcohols under mild conditions are introduced (see scheme; HA=hydrogen autotransfer, BH=borrowing hydrogen, ADC=acceptor-less dehydrogenative condensation). The efficient synthesis of quinolines from alcohols and amino alcohols through the liberation of two equivalents of dihydrogen is also mediated by this catalyst family.

- SiO2-Cu2O: An efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for N-benzylation of primary and secondary amines
-
A mild, effective, and selective procedure is reported for the mono N-benzylation and N,N-dibenzylation of primary amines as well as mono N-benzylation of secondary amines using silica-supported copper(I) oxide in water. The silica-supported Cu2O was generated in situ by the reaction of Fehling solution and glucose at 100 C onto activated silica. The catalyst was filtered, washed with water, and oven-dried, and was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and atomic absorption spectroscopy. The prepared Cu2O-SiO2 was found to be thermally stable up to 325 C. The copper was uniformly distributed onto the surface of the silica, and the mean particle diameter was 7 nm. The catalyst served as a selective heterogenous catalyst for the N-benzylation of primary and secondary amines. The catalyst is recyclable and was used effectively upto fifth run without a significant loss of catalytic activity. Various reaction solvents including water, acetonitrile, and toluene were screened for N-benzylation of amines, and the success of the aqueous system highlights the low environmental impact of the procedure.

- N-alkylation of amines by homogeneous ruthenium complexes in the presence of free diphosphines
-
Chemoselective N-alkylation of amines by ruthenium complexes in the presence of free diphosphine ligands under mild conditions is described. Octyl amine and aniline were chosen as aliphatic and aromatic amines to investigate the effect of different phosphines, reaction times, and temperature on conversion, as well as selectivity towards related secondary and tertiary amines. After optimization of the reaction conditions, this catalytic system was used for N-alkylation of other amines and has shown moderate to very good yields. The reaction products were monitored by GC-MS. The crystal structure of [Ru(NO3)2CO(PPh3)2] with a monodentate and a bidentate nitrate was determined by X-ray crystallographic analysis.
