Using mesitylene and o-xylene as examples, it was shown that the solvent nature strongly affects the conversion of methylbenzenes in electrophilic amination with the system NaN3-AlCl3-HCl. Two-parameter correlations were found between the substrate conversion, on the one hand, and dielectric constant and number of heavy atoms in the solvent, on the other. A considerable solvent effect on the regioselectivity of amination of o-xylene was observed. The presence of 18-crown-6 weakly affects the ratio of isomeric amines, but the conversion of o-xylene sharply decreases. Solid aromatic substrates, such as durene and pentamethylbenzene can also be involved in electrophilic amination with the system NaN3-AlCl3-HCl. On the basis of the experimental data and the results of quantum-chemical calculations, participation of a nitrenium intermediate in this reaction was postulated.

A new heterogeneous catalyst was obtained by growing graphene quantum dots on chitosan and subsequent immobilization of Pd nanoparticles. The catalyst after characterization was used in the reduction of nitroarenes to the corresponding amines by NaBH4 as a weak reducing agent of nitro compounds. The catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity and selectivity under mild reaction conditions in water as a green solvent during 1?h. Additionally, the catalyst can be reused for five consecutive runs without any significant decrease in its activity and selectivity.

In this study, the immobilization of copper nanoparticles on superparamagnetic montmorillonite, MMT?Fe3O4?Cu, was studied. Magnetically nanoparticles (MNPs) of iron oxide (Fe3O4) were primarily prepared by a chemical co-precipitation method. Next, the prepared Fe3O4 MNPs were intercalated within the interlamellar spaces and external surface of sodium-exchanged montmorillonite. Finally, Cu NPs were immobilized on magnetic montmorillonite by a simply mixing of an aqueous solution of CuCl2·2H2O with MMT?Fe3O4 followed by the reduction with NaBH4. Characterization of MMT?Fe3O4 clay system represented that through the immobilization of Fe3O4 MNPs, disordered-layers structure of MMT was easily reorganized to an ordered-layers arrangement. The synthesized composite systems were characterized using FT-IR, SEM, EDX, XRD, VSM, BET and ICP-OES analyses. SEM analysis exhibited that dispersion of Cu NPs, with the size distribution of 15–25 nm, on the surface of magnetic clay was taken place perfectly. BET surface analysis indicated that after the immobilization of Fe3O4 and Cu species, the surface area and total pore volume of MMT?Fe3O4?Cu system was decreased. Next, the Cu-clay nanocomposite system showed a perfect catalytic activity towards reduction of nitroarenes to anilines as well as reductive-acetylation of nitroarenes to acetanilides using NaBH4 and Ac2O in water as a green and economic solvent. The copper magnetic clay catalyst can be easily separated from the reaction mixture by an external magnetic field and reused for six consecutive cycles without the significant loss of its catalytic activity.
