A convenient Hofmann reaction of carboxamides and cyclic imides mediated by trihaloisocyanuric acids

A simple, efficient and pot-economic approach in a single vessel has been developed for conversion of aromatic and aliphatic carboxamides into primary amines with one fewer carbom atom (Hofmann reaction) in 38–89 % yield by reacting with trichloro- or tribromoisocyanuric acid and sodium hydroxide in aqueous acetonitrile. Under the same reaction conditions, cyclic imides gave amino acids (69–83 %). The role of the trihaloisocyanuric acids is the in situ generation of N-haloamides, key-intermediates for the Hofmann reaction. The scalability of the methodology was demonstrated by a multigram-scale transformation of phthalimide into anthranilic acid in 77 % yield.

Cobalt-doped hybrid materials consisting of metal oxides and carbon derived from chitin were prepared, characterized and tested for industrially relevant nitrile hydrogenations. The optimal catalyst supported onto MgO showed, after pyrolysis at 700 °C, magnesium oxide nanocubes decorated with carbon-enveloped Co nanoparticles. This special structure allows for the selective hydrogenation of diverse and demanding nitriles to the corresponding primary amines under mild conditions (e.g. 70 °C, 20 bar H2). The advantage of this novel catalytic material is showcased for industrially important substrates, including adipodinitrile, picolinonitrile, and fatty acid nitriles. Notably, the developed system outperformed all other tested commercial catalysts, for example, Raney Nickel and even noble-metal-based systems in these transformations.

Paragraph 0027-0030; 0051-0055, (2020/05/30)
The invention discloses a method for preparing primary amine by catalyzing reductive amination of aldehyde ketone compounds. The method comprises the following steps: 1) mixing nickel nitrate hexahydrate, citric acid and an organic solvent, carrying out heating and stirring until a colloidal material is obtained, drying the colloidal material, roasting the colloidal material in a protective atmosphere, pickling, washing and drying a roasted product, and performing a partial oxidation reaction on a dried product in an oxygen-nitrogen mixed atmosphere to obtain a catalyst for a reductive amination reaction; and 2) mixing aldehyde or ketone compounds, a methanol solution of ammonia and the reductive amination reaction catalyst, introducing hydrogen, and carrying out a reductive amination reaction. The method has the advantages of high primary amine yield, high selectivity, wide aldehyde ketone substrate range, short reaction time, mild reaction conditions, low cost, greenness, economicalperformance and the like; the used reductive amination reaction catalyst can be recycled more than 10 times, and the catalytic activity of the catalyst is not obviously changed in gram-level reactions; and the method is suitable for large-scale application.
