The reductive amination of carboxylic acids is a very green, efficient and sustainable method for the production of (bio-based) amines. However, with current technology, this reaction requires two to three reaction steps. Here, we report the first (heterogeneous) catalytic system for the one-pot reductive amination of carboxylic acids to amines, with solely H2 and NH3 as the reactants. This reaction can be performed with relatively cheap ruthenium-tungsten bimetallic catalysts in the green and benign solvent cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME). Selectivities of up to 99% for the primary amine could be achieved at high conversions. Additionally, the catalyst is recyclable and tolerant for common impurities such as water and cations (e.g. sodium carboxylate).

Paragraph 0067-0071, (2020/12/09)
The invention relates to a half-sandwiched ruthenium complex containing a carborane schiff base ligand and a preparation and an application thereof. The preparation method specifically comprises the following steps; i) dissolving o-carborane formaldehyde and aromatic amine in an organic solvent, carrying out reaction at 60-100 DEG C for 8-12h, cooling to room temperature after the reaction; ii) adding n-butyllithium, carrying out reaction at room temperature for 1.5-2.5h; ii) adding phellandrene ruthenium chloride dimer, carrying out reaction at room temperature for 3-6h, and obtaining the half-sandwiched ruthenium complex through separation. The half-sandwiched ruthenium complex is applied to catalyze transfer hydrogenation reaction of nitrile compounds. Compared with the prior art, the complex of the present invention is not sensitive to air and water, has stable properties, and shows high-efficiency catalytic activity in catalyzing the transfer hydrogenation reaction of nitrile compounds. The preparation method of the complex is simple and green, high in yield, mild in reaction conditions and good in universality.

The transformation of alkyl nitriles to symmetrical and asymmetrical secondary aliphatic amines promoted by the hexahydride complex OsH6(PiPr3)2 (1) is described, and the mechanisms of the reactions involved are established. Complex 1 catalyzes the aforementioned transformations of aryl-, pyridyl-, and alkoxy-functionalized alkyl nitriles with linear or branched chains. The formation of the secondary amines involves primary imines, primary amines, and secondary imines as organic intermediates. The reactions take place under mild conditions (toluene, 100 °C, and 4 bar of H2). Stoichiometric reactions of 1 with pivalonitrile and 2-methoxyacetonitrile have allowed us to isolate the trihydride azavinylidene derivatives OsH3{═N═CHR}(PiPr3)2 (R = tBu (3), CH2OMe (4)). Their formation involves the insertion of the N-C triple bond of the substrates into an Os-H bond of the unsaturated tetrahydride OsH4(PiPr3)2 (A), which is generated by reductive elimination of H2 from the hexahydride precursor. The reaction of these trihydride azavinylidene species with H2 is the key step for the reduction of the N-C triple bond of the nitriles. In the absence of H2, the attack of A to the azavinylidene ligand produces the rupture of its C(sp2)-C(sp3) bond. As a consequence of this attack and the presence of primary imines and amines in the reaction media, the binuclear complexes (PiPr3)2H4Os(μ-CN)OsH3{κ1-N-(NH═CHCH2OMe)}(PiPr3)2 (5) and (PiPr3)2H4Os(μ-CN)OsH3{κ1-N-(NH2CH2CH2OMe)}(PiPr3)2 (6) have been isolated and characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, for 2-methoxyacetonitrile. DFT calculations reveal noticeable similarities between the hydrogenations of nitriles to primary imines and those of primary imines to primary amines.
Nitrogen-Doped Carbon-Supported Nickel Nanoparticles: A Robust Catalyst to Bridge the Hydrogenation of Nitriles and the Reductive Amination of Carbonyl Compounds for the Synthesis of Primary Amines

An efficient method was developed for the synthesis of primary amines either from the hydrogenation of nitriles or reductive amination of carbonyl compounds. The reactions were catalyzed by nitrogen-doped mesoporous carbon (MC)-supported nickel nanoparticles (abbreviated as MC/Ni). The MC/Ni catalyst demonstrated high catalytic activity for the hydrogenation of nitriles into primary amines in high yields (81.9–99 %) under mild reaction conditions (80 °C and 2.5 bar H2). The MC/Ni catalyst also promoted the reductive amination of carbonyl compounds for the synthesis of primary amines at 80 °C and 1 bar H2. The hydrogenation of nitriles and the reductive amination proceeded through the same intermediates for the generation of the primary amines. To the best of our knowledge, no other heterogeneous non-noble metal catalysts have been reported for the synthesis of primary amines under mild conditions, both from the hydrogenation of nitriles and reductive amination.
Palladium-Catalyzed β-Mesylation of Simple Amide via Primary sp3 C-H Activation

supporting information, p. 1768 - 1771 (2017/04/11)
A β-mesylation of primary sp3 C-H bonds from simple amides with methanesulfonic anhydride (Ms2O) has been established successfully at 80 °C in a Pd(OAc)2 (catalyst)/K2S2O8 (oxidant)/CF3CH2OH (solvent) system. These amide substrates involve N-monosubstituted linear, branch, or cyclic alkanes, and electron-deficient benzyl compounds. The β-mesylated amide products can be converted easily to β-fluoroamides or β-lactams through inter- or intramolecular SN2 processes.

The selective hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amines using a bench-stable cobalt precatalyst under 4 atm of H2 is reported herein. The catalyst precursor was reduced in situ using NaHBEt3, and the resulting Lewis acid formed, BEt3, was found to be integral to the observed catalysis. Mechanistic insights gleaned from para-hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) transfer NMR studies revealed that the pairwise hydrogenation of nitriles proceeded through a Co(I/III) redox process.

A convenient and efficient catalyst system for the hydrogenation of aliphatic nitriles towards the corresponding primary amines in high to excellent yields is presented. In addition, aromatic nitriles are reduced smoothly, too. The use of low catalyst loadings and molecular hydrogen make this protocol an attractive methodology. It's not complicated: A general and easy homogeneous catalyst system based on [Ru(cod)(methylallyl)2] and a cyclohexyl-substituted imidazolylphosphine ligand for selective hydrogenation of aliphatic nitriles is presented. In addition, by using an isopropyl-substituted imidazolylphosphine ligand, selected aromatic nitriles were reduced with excellent yields towards the primary amine. Furthermore, two new crystal structures give an insight of possible pre-catalysts.

, p. 2905 - 2912 (2013/10/21)
A slightly adapted catalyst system has been successfully applied in the direct amination of primary and secondary alcohols. Moreover, the applicability to diols has been shown, giving high selectivity towards the primary diamines. It was found that the Ru/P ratio as well as the amount of ammonia used are highly important in this system, especially for higher substrate loadings. The catalyst was employed on a larger batch scale for the conversion of isomannide to the corresponding diamine. Additionally, it was shown that the catalyst is stable for at least six consecutive runs. No significant loss of activity and selectivity was observed.
Selective hydrogenation of amides using ruthenium/ molybdenum catalysts

experimental part, p. 869 - 883 (2010/07/05)
Recyclable, heterogeneous bimetallic ruthenium/molybdenum catalysts, formed in situ from triruthenium dodecacarbonyl [Ru3(CO)12] and molybdenum hexacarbonyl [Mo(CO)6], are effective for the selective liquid phase hydrogenation of cyclohexylcarboxamide (CyCONH2) to cyclohexanemethylamine (CyCH2NH2), with no secondary or tertiary amine by-product formation. Variation of Mo:Ru composition reveals both synergistic and poisoning effects, with the optimum combination of conversion and selectivity at ca. 0.5, and total inhibition of catalysis evident at ≥1. Good amide conversions are noted within the reaction condition regimes 20100 bar hydrogen and 145-160°C. The order of reactivity of these catalysts towards reduction of different amide functional groups is primary > tertiary ? secondary. In situ HP-FT-IR spectroscopy confirms that catalyst genesis occurs during an induction period associated with decomposition of the organometallic precursors. Ex situ characterisation, using XRD, XPS and EDX-STEM, for active Mo:Ru compositions, has provided evidence for intimately mixed ca. 2.5-4 nm particles that contain metallic ruthenium, and molybdenum (in several oxidation states, including zero).
