Herein, we demonstrated an efficient protocol for reductive alkylation of azides/nitro compounds via a borrowing hydrogen (BH) method. By following this protocol, selective mono- and dialkylated amines were obtained under mild and solvent-free conditions. A series of control experiments and deuterium-labeling experiments were performed to understand this catalytic process. Mechanistic studies suggested that the Ir(III)-H was the active intermediate in this reaction. KIE study revealed that the breaking of the C-H bond of alcohol might be the rate-limiting step. Notably, this solvent-free strategy disclosed a high TON of around 5600. Based on kinetic studies and control experiments, a metal-ligand cooperative mechanism was proposed.

We have developed a new catalytic method for the one-pot, cascade synthesis of unsymmetrical secondary amines via the reductive amination of aryl nitriles with nitroalkanes using a PdPt-Fe3O4 nanoparticle (NP) catalyst. The use of a bimetallic catalyst resulted in enhanced reactivity and selectivity compared to that of either monometallic Pd-Fe3O4 or the Pt-Fe3O4 NP catalyst. Using this bimetallic catalytic system, we were successful in the synthesis of various unsymmetrical secondary amines under mild conditions. However, aryl nitriles containing an electron-donating substituent were rather resistant to the reductive amination, and when hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) was used as a co-solvent, the reaction selectivity and yield for unsymmetrical secondary amines increased dramatically. Using the catalyst system, one-pot, gram-scale synthesis of indole was possible from 2-nitrophenylacetonitrile. Due to the magnetic property of the Fe3O4 support, the bimetallic catalyst could easily be recycled using an external magnet at least four times.

Iron-catalyzed intramolecular C-H amination of aliphatic azides has recently emerged as a powerful tool for the preparation of nitrogen heterocycles. This paper reports that α-azidyl amides can be converted in high efficacy to imidazolinone compounds via intramolecular C(sp3)-H amination by the action of a simple catalytic system composed of FeCl2 and a β-diketiminate ligand. The reactions provide a simple and atom-economical approach toward polysubstituted imidazolinones.
