Selective hydrogenation of nitriles to secondary amines catalyzed by a pyridyl-functionalized and alkenyl-tethered NHC-Ru(II) complex
Saha, Sayantani,Kaur, Mandeep,Singh, Kuldeep,Bera, Jitendra K.
, p. 87 - 94 (2016)
A set of Co(III) and Ru(II) compounds are synthesized bearing pyridyl-functionalized and alkenyl-tethered N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligand (L1). [CoIII(L1)3](PF6)3 (1) was synthesized by the reaction of [L1H]PF6, Co(OAc)2.4H2O, K2CO3 in tetrahydrofuran (THF) under refluxing condition. [RuIIL1(η6-p-cymene)Cl]PF6 (2) was synthesized via transmetallation method. For both compounds, the NHC ligand chelates the metal through carbene carbon and pyridyl nitrogen whereas the butenyl unit remains free. Compound 2 hydrogenates organic nitriles efficiently providing selectively secondary amines. In the presence of external amines, unsymmetrical secondary amines are also obtained.
Design of a bifunctional Ir-Zr based metal-organic framework heterogeneous catalyst for the N-alkylation of amines with alcohols

The direct N-alkylation of amines with alcohols was performed with an Ir-Zr-based metal-organic framework multifunctional heterogeneous catalyst. This system is efficient and environmentally benign for the synthesis of various organic amines in air in the absence of a base. The catalyst was recovered and reused without significant loss of activity, and only water was produced as a byproduct.

2-(Diethylamino)propane (DEAP) and 2-(dibenzylamino)propane (DBAP) possess similar molecular symmetries. Interconversion among the stable equilibrium conformations occurs by inversion-rotation at the pyramidal nitrogen and by isolated rotation about carbon-nitrogen bonds. In DEAP and DBAP, the fact that stable equilibrium conformations cannot have destabilizing syn-1,5 interactions between methyl or phenyl groups limits the number of equilibrium conformations that will be present at concentrations high enough to be NMR detectable. The 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectra of DEAP at 100 K show two diastereomeric pairs of enantiomeric conformations. One pair of enantiomers has the isopropyl methine proton and both ethyl methyl groups gauche to the lone pair (75%). The other pair has the methine proton anti to the lone pair with the ethyl methyl groups respectively gauche and anti to the lone pair (25%). The barrier to inversion-rotation in DEAP (ΔG? = 6.4 kcal/mol) is higher than barriers to isolated rotation about carbon-nitrogen bonds (ΔG? = 5.3-5.7 kcal/mol). The 1H and 13C{1H} NMR spectra of DBAP at 100 K show just one pair of enantiomeric conformations that have the isopropyl methine proton and both phenyl groups gauche to the lone pair. There is no evidence in the NMR spectrum at 100 K for those conformations of DBAP that have a phenyl group anti to the lone pair. The barrier to inversion-rotation in DBAP (ΔG? = 6.4 kcal/mol) is higher than the barrier to racemization via isolated rotation about carbon-nitrogen bonds (ΔG? = 5.5 kcal/mol). Molecular mechanics calculations of conformational energies are in good agreement with the observed conformational preferences.
Additive-free selective methylation of secondary amines with formic acid over a Pd/In2O3 catalyst

, p. 57 - 61 (2022/01/19)
Formic acid is used as the sole carbon and hydrogen source in the methylation of aromatic and aliphatic amines to methylamines. The reaction proceeds via a formylation/transfer hydrogenation pathway over a solid Pd/In2O3 catalyst without the need for any additive.

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.
Hydrogenation of Secondary Amides using Phosphane Oxide and Frustrated Lewis Pair Catalysis
K?ring, Laura,Sitte, Nikolai A.,Bursch, Markus,Grimme, Stefan,Paradies, Jan
, p. 14179 - 14183 (2021/09/03)
The metal-free catalytic hydrogenation of secondary carboxylic acid amides is developed. The reduction is realized by two new catalytic reactions. First, the amide is converted into the imidoyl chloride by triphosgene (CO(OCCl3)2) using novel phosphorus(V) catalysts. Second, the in situ generated imidoyl chlorides are hydrogenated in high yields by an FLP-catalyst. Mechanistic and quantum mechanical calculations support an autoinduced catalytic cycle for the hydrogenation with chloride acting as unusual Lewis base for FLP-mediated H2-activation.
