Using a two-step hydride transfer to achieve 1,4-reduction in the catalytic hydrogenation of an Acyl pyridinium cation
(Chemical Equation Presented) The stoichiometric reduction of N-carbophenoxypyridinium tetraphenylborate (6) by CpRu(P-P)H (Cp = η5-cyclopentadienyl; P-P = dppe, 1,2-bis(diphenylphosphino) ethane, or dppf, 1,1′-bis(diphenylphosphino)ferrocene), and Cp*Ru(P-P)H (Cp* = η5-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl; P-P = dppe) gives mixtures of 1,2- and 1,4-dihydropyridines. The stoichiometric reduction of 6 by Cp*Ru(dppf)H (5) gives only the 1,4-dihydropyridine, and 5 catalyzes the exclusive formation of the 1,4-dihydropyridine from 6, H 2, and 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine. In the stoichiometric reductions, the ratio of 1,4 to 1,2 product increases as the Ru hydrides become better one-electron reductants, suggesting that the 1,4 product arises from a two-step (e-/H?) hydride transfer. Calculations at the UB3LYP/6-311++G(3df,3pd)//UB3LYP/6-31G* level support this hypothesis, indicating that the spin density in the N-carbophenoxypyridinium radical (13) resides primarily at C4, while the positive charge in 6 resides primarily at C2 and C6. The isomeric dihydropyridines thus result from the operation of different mechanisms: the 1,2 product from a single-step H- transfer and the 1,4 product from a two-step (e-/H?) transfer.

Organolanthanide catalyzed intramolecular 5-endo-dig hydroamination: An unusual anti-Markovnikov cyclization
Intramolecular 5-endo-dig hydroaminations of homopropargylamine derivatives were efficiently catalyzed by the organolanthanide precatalyst, Cp*2YbCH(TMS)2 (Cp* = C5Me5), to give the endocyclic enamine products. The 5-endo-dig hydroamination was also preferred in the presence of another olefin that would afford a 6-exo cyclization.

Photoredox-Catalyzed Simultaneous Olefin Hydrogenation and Alcohol Oxidation over Crystalline Porous Polymeric Carbon Nitride
Booming of photocatalytic water splitting technology (PWST) opens a new avenue for the sustainable synthesis of high-value-added hydrogenated and oxidized fine chemicals, in which the design of efficient semiconductors for the in-situ and synergistic utilization of photogenerated redox centers are key roles. Herein, a porous polymeric carbon nitride (PPCN) with a crystalline backbone was constructed for visible light-induced photocatalytic hydrogen generation by photoexcited electrons, followed by in-situ utilization for olefin hydrogenation. Simultaneously, various alcohols were selectively transformed to valuable aldehydes or ketones by photoexcited holes. The porosity of PPCN provided it with a large surface area and a short transfer path for photogenerated carriers from the bulk to the surface, and the crystalline structure facilitated photogenerated charge transfer and separation, thus enhancing the overall photocatalytic performance. High reactivity and selectivity, good functionality tolerance, and broad reaction scope were achieved by this concerted photocatalysis system. The results contribute to the development of highly efficient semiconductor photocatalysts and synergistic redox reaction systems based on PWST for high-value-added fine chemical production.

Hydrosilylative reduction of primary amides to primary amines catalyzed by a terminal [Ni-OH] complex
A terminal [Ni-OH] complex1, supported by triflamide-functionalized NHC ligands, catalyzes the hydrosilylative reduction of a range of primary amides into primary amines in good to excellent yields under base-free conditions with key functional group tolerance. Catalyst1is also effective for the reduction of a variety of tertiary and secondary amides. In contrast to literature reports, the reactivity of1towards amide reduction follows an inverse trend,i.e., 1° amide > 3° amide > 2° amide. The reaction does not follow a usual dehydration pathway.

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

BF3·Et2O as a metal-free catalyst for direct reductive amination of aldehydes with amines using formic acid as a reductant
A versatile metal- and base-free direct reductive amination of aldehydes with amines using formic acid as a reductant under the catalysis of inexpensive BF3·Et2O has been developed. A wide range of primary and secondary amines and diversely substituted aldehydes are compatible with this transformation, allowing facile access to various secondary and tertiary amines in high yields with wide functional group tolerance. Moreover, the method is convenient for the late-stage functionalization of bioactive compounds and preparation of commercialized drug molecules and biologically relevant N-heterocycles. The procedure has the advantages of simple operation and workup and easy scale-up, and does not require dry conditions, an inert atmosphere or a water scavenger. Mechanistic studies reveal the involvement of imine activation by BF3and hydride transfer from formic acid.

Nickel?Copper bimetallic mesoporous nanoparticles: As an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for N-alkylation of amines with alcohols
A bimetallic catalyst (Ni/Cu-MCM-41) is prepared via co-condensation method. The latter is characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), and nitrogen adsorption–desorption analysis. Catalytic performance of Ni/Cu-MCM-41 is probed in N-alkylation of amines with alcohols through a hydrogen autotransfer process. Noteworthy, this catalytic system appears very efficient for synthesis of a range of secondary and tertiary amines in good to excellent isolated yields. Moreover, the catalyst is successfully recovered and reused four times without notable decrease in its activity.

N?N Bond Formation Using an Iodonitrene as an Umpolung of Ammonia: Straightforward and Chemoselective Synthesis of Hydrazinium Salts
The formation of hydrazinium salts by N?N bond formation has typically involved the use of hazardous and difficult to handle reagents. Here, mild and operationally simple conditions for the synthesis of hydrazinium salts are reported. Electrophilic nitrogen transfer to the nitrogen atom of tertiary amines is achieved using iodosylbenzene as oxidant and ammonium carbamate as the N-source. The resulting process is highly chemoselective and tolerant to other functional groups. A wide scope is reported, including examples with bioactive molecules. Insights on the structure of hydrazinium salts were provided by X-ray analysis. (Figure presented.).

Bis(alkyl) scandium and yttrium complexes coordinated by an amidopyridinate ligand: Synthesis, characterization and catalytic performance in isoprene polymerization, hydroelementation and carbon dioxide hydrosilylation
New neutral bis(alkyl) Sc and Y complexes [N,Npy,N-]Ln(CH2SiMe3)2(THF)n [n = 0, Ln = Sc (1Sc), Y (1Y); n = 1, Ln = Y (1YTHF)] stabilized by a tridentate monoanionic amidopyridinate ligand were straightforwardly prepared by alkane elimination, upon mixing ligand [N,Npy,N-]H and metal precursor Ln(CH2SiMe3)3(THF)2 in toluene at 0 °C. Depending on the work-up conditions, yttrium bis(alkyl)s were isolated as either a pentacoordinate Lewis base free complex [N,Npy,N-]Y(CH2SiMe3)2 (1Y) or as a hexacoordinate THF adduct [N,Npy,N-]Y(CH2SiMe3)2THF (1YTHF). For the smaller Sc ion the only solvent-free complex [N,Npy,N-]Y(CH2SiMe3)2 (1Sc) was isolated as a pentacoordinate species irrespective of the reaction/work-up/crystallization conditions applied. Complexes 1Ln (Ln = Y, Sc) and 1YTHF were scrutinized as pre-catalysts in ternary catalytic systems Ln/borate/AliBu3 (borate = [HNMe2Ph][B(C6F5)4] or [Ph3C][B(C6F5)4]), applied to isoprene (IP) polymerization, providing moderate activity albeit high selectivity with predominant formation of 1,4-cis polyisoprene (up to 99%). The same complexes proved to be effcient catalysts also for the intermolecular hydrolelementation of styrene with various EH sustrates (pyrrolidine, morpholine, Ph2PH, PhPH2, PhSH) affording linear anti-Markovnikov addition products exclusively. After a preliminary activation by B(C6F5)3, selected bis(alkyl) complexes from this series have been finally used as valuable pre-catalysts for the CO2 hydrosylilation to CH4 in the presence of organosilanes as reducing agents (PhMe2SiH, PhSiH3, Et2MeSiH).

Hydrazone complexes of ruthenium(II): Synthesis, crystal structures and catalytic applications in N-alkylation reactions
A series of new Ru(II) complexes of 8-hydroxy quinoline-2-carboxyaldehyde hydrazone of the general formula [RuH(CO)(EPh3)2L] (1–6) (E = P or As, L = N’-((8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methylene)thiophene-2-carbohydrazide (HQ-THy), N’-((8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methylene)isonicotinohydrazide (HQ-IHy), N’-((8-hydroxyquinolin-2-yl)methylene) benzohydrazide (HQ-BHy)) have been synthesized. They have been characterized by elemental analysis, IR, NMR (1H, 13C & 31P) and ESI-MS spectral methods. Further, structures of two of the complexes have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction technique which revealed a pseudo octahedral geometry with the coordination of the quinoline nitrogen and quinoline oxygen atoms of the ligand. All the new complexes have been employed as efficient catalysts in N-alkylation reactions for the synthesis of tertiary amines by the coupling of secondary amines with aromatic primary alcohols at low catalyst loading with maximum yields. In addition, the effects of substituents on the ligands, different solvents as well as bases and amounts of catalyst loading on the catalytic activity of the complexes have been thoroughly investigated. Complex 1 was found to be efficient catalyst towards N-alkylation of alcohols with the amine. Further, a variety of secondary amines and aromatic (hetero) primary alcohols with various functional groups have also been successfully used in the N-alkylation reactions and it has been found that only one equivalent of the alcohol was consumed in the process.

Diethylsilane as a Powerful Reagent in Au Nanoparticle-Catalyzed Reductive Transformations
Diethylsilane (Et2SiH2), a simple and readily available dihydrosilane, that exhibits superior reactivity, as compared to monohydrosilanes, in a series of reductive transformations catalyzed by recyclable and reusable Au nanoparticles (1 mol-%) supported on TiO2. It reduces aldehydes or ketones almost instantaneously at ambient conditions. It can be used in a one pot rapid reductive amination procedure, in which premixing of aldehyde and amine is required prior to the addition of the reducing agent and the catalyst, even in a protic solvent. An unprecedented method for the synthesis of N-arylisoindolines is also shown in the reductive amination between o-phthalaldehyde and anilines. In this transformation, it is proposed that the intermediate N,2-diphenylisoindolin-1-imines are reduced stepwise to the isoindolines. Finally, Et2SiH2 readily reduces amides into amines in excellent yields and shorter reaction times relative to previously known analogous nano Au(0)-catalyzed protocols.

Practical direct synthesis of: N -aryl-substituted azacycles from N -alkyl protected arylamines using TiCl4and DBU
A novel transformation of N-alkyl protected arylamines and cyclic ethers into N-aryl substituted azacycles is described. Alkyl groups have been used for the protection of amines in organic syntheses. In this synthesis, N-alkyl protected arylamines were reacted with cyclic ethers in the presence of TiCl4 and DBU, crucial reagents affording five- and six-membered azacycles. In particular, utilization of the novel TiCl4/DBU-mediated reaction allows various N-alkyl protected arylamines such as N-methyl-, N-ethyl-, N-isopropyl, and N-tert-butyl arylamines to be readily converted into N-aryl substituted azacycles in high yields. This practical approach using various N-alkyl arylamines leads to the efficient preparation of azacycles.

Efficient One-Pot Reductive Aminations of Carbonyl Compounds with Aquivion-Fe as a Recyclable Catalyst and Sodium Borohydride
A one-pot reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones with NaBH4 was developed with a view to providing efficient, economical and greener synthetic conditions. A recyclable iron-based Lewis catalyst, Aquivion-Fe, was used to promote imine formation in cyclopentyl methyl ether, followed by the addition of a small amount of methanol to the reaction mixture to enable C=N reduction by NaBH4. The protocol, applied to a wide number of amines and carbonyl compounds, resulted in ever complete conversion of these latter with excellent chemoselectivity towards the expected amination products in the most cases. Isolated yields, determined for a selection of the screened substrates, were found consistent with the previously obtained conversion and selectivity data. Cinacalcet, an important active pharmaceutical ingredient, was efficiently prepared by the title procedure.

Electroactivated alkylation of amines with alcohols: Via both direct and indirect borrowing hydrogen mechanisms
A green, efficient N-alkylation of amines with simple alcohols has been achieved in aqueous solution via an electrochemical version of the so-called "borrowing hydrogen methodology". Catalyzed by Ru on activated carbon cloth (Ru/ACC), the reaction works well with methanol, and with primary and secondary alcohols. Alkylation can be accomplished by either of two different electrocatalytic processes: (1) in an undivided cell, alcohol (present in excess) is oxidized at the Ru/ACC anode; the aldehyde or ketone product condenses with the amine; and the resulting imine is reduced at an ACC cathode, combining with protons released by the oxidation. This process consumes stoichiometric quantities of current. (2) In a membrane-divided cell, the current-activated Ru/ACC cathode effects direct C-H activation of the alcohol; the resulting carbonyl species, either free or still surface-adsorbed, condenses with amine to form imine and is reduced as in (1). These alcohol activation processes can alkylate primary and secondary aliphatic amines, as well as ammonia itself at 25-70 °C and ambient pressure.

Direct Catalytic Reductive N-Alkylation of Amines with Carboxylic Acids: Chemoselective Enamine Formation and further Functionalizations
Direct reductive N-alkylation of secondary amines with carboxylic acids using molybdenum hexacarbonyl (5 mol %) as catalyst and diethoxymethylsilane as reducing agent generate enamines in a straightforward fashion in high yields. The formed enamines are without the need for isolation or purification further reacted with trimethylsilyl cyanide in the same reaction flask to yield α-amino nitriles in good yields. In the optimized reaction conditions equimolar amounts of carboxylic acid and amine are reacted under neat conditions, and a catalytic amount of trifluoroethanol (0.1 mol %) is added along with TMSCN for the cyanation step. The reductive N-alkylation reaction is demonstrated to be highly chemoselective, tolerating a multitude of different functional groups present in the starting carboxylic acids and amines. The reaction is scalable and the generated α-amino nitriles are converted to other useful compounds, e.g., α-amino acids or amino-tetrazoles. In addition, the intermediate enamines are further transformed into triazolines, sulfonylformamidines, pyrimidinediones, and TMS-propargylamines, respectively, in high yields under mild reaction conditions. Benzoic acids react with secondary amines under similar conditions to give tertiary amines in high yields, and using this methodology, the biologically active compound Piribedil was isolated in 80% yield in a direct one-pot reaction setup.

General Reductive Amination of Aldehydes and Ketones with Amines and Nitroaromatics under H2 by Recyclable Iridium Catalysts
Heterogeneous iridium catalysts were prepared and applied for the reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones with nitroaromatics and amines using H2. The iridium catalysts were prepared by pyrolysis of ionic liquid 1-methyl-3-cyanomethylimidazoulium chloride ([MCNI]Cl) with iridium chloride (IrCl3) in activated carbons. Iridium particles were well dispersed and stable in the N-doped carbon materials from [MCNI]Cl with activated carbon. The Ir@NC(600-2h) catalyst was found to be highly active and selective for the reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones using H2 and a variety of nitrobenzenes and amines were selectively converted into the corresponding secondary and tertiary amines. The Ir@NC(600-2h) catalyst can be reusable several times without evident deactivation.

One-pot Reductive Amination of Carbonyl Compounds with NaBH4-B(OSO3H)3/SiO2 in Acetonitrile and in Solvent-free Condition
An efficient one-pot procedure for the direct reductive amination of aldehyde and ketones was achieved in the presence of sodium borohydride by using B(OSO3H)3/SiO2(SBSA) as the reusable solid catalyst in acetonitrile and solvent-free conditions. Both aromatic and aliphatic aldehyde reacted well to give the corresponding amines in excellent yields. All the products are known and well-characterized. The catalyst is recoverable and could be easily recycled by filtration and reused several times without any significant loss of its activity. SBSA acts as a dual Br?nsted/Lewis acid that is an air-stable and cost-effective solid acid. [Figure not available: see fulltext.]

Photochemical Activation of Tertiary Amines for Applications in Studying Cell Physiology
Representative tertiary amines were linked to the 8-cyano-7-hydroxyquinolinyl (CyHQ) photoremovable protecting group (PPG) to create photoactivatable forms suitable for use in studying cell physiology. The photoactivation of tamoxifen and 4-hydroxytamoxifen, which can be used to activate Cre recombinase and CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing, demonstrated that highly efficient release of bioactive molecules could be achieved through one- and two-photon excitation (1PE and 2PE). CyHQ-protected anilines underwent a photoaza-Claisen rearrangement instead of releasing amines. Time-resolved spectroscopic studies revealed that photorelease of the tertiary amines was extremely fast, occurring from a singlet excited state of CyHQ on the 70 ps time scale.

Derisking the Cu-Mediated 18F-Fluorination of Heterocyclic Positron Emission Tomography Radioligands
Molecules labeled with fluorine-18 (18F) are used in positron emission tomography to visualize, characterize and measure biological processes in the body. Despite recent advances in the incorporation of 18F onto arenes, the development of general and efficient approaches to label radioligands necessary for drug discovery programs remains a significant task. This full account describes a derisking approach toward the radiosynthesis of heterocyclic positron emission tomography (PET) radioligands using the copper-mediated 18F-fluorination of aryl boron reagents with 18F-fluoride as a model reaction. This approach is based on a study examining how the presence of heterocycles commonly used in drug development affects the efficiency of 18F-fluorination for a representative aryl boron reagent, and on the labeling of more than 50 (hetero)aryl boronic esters. This set of data allows for the application of this derisking strategy to the successful radiosynthesis of seven structurally complex pharmaceutically relevant heterocycle-containing molecules.

Mild and Selective Cobalt-Catalyzed Chemodivergent Transfer Hydrogenation of Nitriles
Herein, we describe a selective cobalt-catalyzed chemodivergent transfer hydrogenation of nitriles to synthesize primary, secondary, and tertiary amines. The solvent effect plays a key role for the selectivity control. The general applicability of this procedure was highlighted by the synthesis of more than 70 amine products bearing various functional groups in high chemoselectivity. Moreover, this mild system achieved >2000 TONs (turnover numbers) for the transfer hydrogenation of nitriles.

Heterogeneous cobalt catalysts for reductive amination with H2: General synthesis of secondary and tertiary amines
Heterogeneous Co@NC catalysts were prepared, characterized and applied for the reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones with H2 gas. The Co catalyst Co@NC (800-2 h) was found to be active and selective for the reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones using H2 gas. Thus, general synthesis of secondary and tertiary amines was developed by the Co-catalyzed reductive amination with H2 gas, and various secondary and tertiary amines can be obtained in high yields. Moreover, a practical synthesis of N-substituted isoindolinones was also presented by a one step process with the Co@NC (800-2 h) catalyst. The Co@NC (800-2 h) catalyst is reusable at least five times without evident loss of activity.

Controlled Reduction of Tertiary Amides to the Corresponding Alcohols, Aldehydes, or Amines Using Dialkylboranes and Aminoborohydride Reagents
Dialkylboranes and aminoborohydrides are mild, selective reducing agents complementary to the commonly utilized amide reducing agents, such as lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH4) and diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL) reagents. Tertiary amides were reduced using 1 or 2 equiv of various dialkylboranes. The reduction of tertiary amides required 2 equiv of 9-borabicyclo[3.3.1]nonane (9-BBN) for complete reduction to give the corresponding tertiary amines. One equivalent of sterically hindered disiamylborane reacts with tertiary amides to afford the corresponding aldehydes. Aminoborohydrides are powerful and selective reducing agents for the reduction of tertiary amides. Lithium dimethylaminoborohydride and lithium diisopropylaminoborohydride are prepared from n-butyllithium and the corresponding amine-borane. Chloromagnesium dimethylaminoborohydride (ClMg+[H3B-NMe2]-, MgAB) is prepared by the reaction of dimethylamine-borane with methylmagnesium chloride. Solutions of aminoborohydride reduce aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic tertiary amides to give the corresponding alcohol, amine, or aldehyde depending on the steric requirement of the tertiary amide and the aminoborohydride used.

N-Alkylation and N,C-Dialkylation of Amines with Alcohols in the Presence of Ruthenium Catalysts with Chelating N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands
A series of new benzimidazolium salts and ruthenium(II) complexes containing chelating N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) functionalized with a benzylic group and an acetal group were prepared. All of the synthesized compounds were characterized by elemental analysis and NMR spectroscopy, and the molecular structures of 2c and 2d were determined by X-ray crystallography. All of the complexes were tested in the alkylation of cyclic amine derivatives with alcohols and showed excellent activity in this reaction. Cyclic amines were alkylated with primary and heteroaromatic alcohols. The Ru-NHC complexes also catalyzed N,C3-dialkylation of cyclic amines. (Chemical Equation Presented).

Alkylation of Amines with Alcohols and Amines by a Single Catalyst under Mild Conditions
An efficient catalytic system for the alkylation of amines with either alcohols or amines under mild conditions has been developed, using cyclometallated iridium complexes as catalysts. The method has broad substrate scope, allowing for the synthesis of a diverse range of secondary and tertiary amines with good to excellent yields. By controlling the ratio of substrates, both mono- and bis-alkylated amines can be obtained with high selectivity. In particular, methanol can be used as the alkylating reagent, affording N-methylated products selectively. A strong solvent effect is observed for the reaction.

Benzimidazolin-2-ylidene N-heterocyclic carbene complexes of ruthenium as a simple catalyst for the N-alkylation of amines using alcohols and diols
Simple air and moisture stable ruthenium complexes 1-3 and 3a were synthesized from readily available benzannulated N-heterocyclic carbene ligands (bimy = benzimidazolin-2-ylidene). These complexes were found to be efficient catalysts for the alkylation of amines using alcohols as alkylating agents. Catalysts 1, 2 and 3a gave excellent yields of up to 99% for the alkylation of various amines using benzylic and aliphatic alcohols at 130 °C for 18 h under solventless conditions. Catalyst 3a bearing both phosphine and carbene ligands gave excellent yields of up to 98% for the synthesis of heterocyclic amines by double alkylation of primary amines using linear diols. The practical utility of these catalysts was demonstrated for the synthesis of pharmaceutically important amines in a more environmentally benign way under solventless conditions.
