Werkmeister, Svenja,Bornschein, Christoph,Junge, Kathrin,Beller, Matthias
, p. 4437 - 4440 (2013)
Transfer your hydrogen: Fast and general transfer hydrogenation of nitriles to form primary amines is possible with a homogeneous Ru/1,4- bis(diphenylphosphino)butane (DPPB) catalyst (see scheme). The use of 2-butanol as the hydrogen-transfer reagent is essential for the selective reduction of aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic nitriles with this system. Copyright

We report herein the first Cu catalyzed reduction of azides with B2pin2 (pin = pinacolato) as the reductant under very mild conditions. A series of primary amines and amides were obtained in moderate to excellent yields with high chemoselectivity and good functional group tolerance. This reaction can be performed with a cheap copper salt, a simple NHC ligand and a diboron reagent.

Weber, Stefan,St?ger, Berthold,Kirchner, Karl
, p. 7212 - 7215 (2018)
Efficient hydrogenations of nitriles and ketones with molecular hydrogen catalyzed by a well-defined bench-stable bisphosphine Mn(I) complex are described. These reactions are environmentally benign and atomically economic, implementing an inexpensive, earth-abundant nonprecious metal catalyst. A range of aromatic and aliphatic nitriles and ketones were efficiently converted into primary amines and alcohols, respectively, in good to excellent yields. The hydrogenation of nitriles proceeds at 100 °C with catalyst loading of 2 mol % and 20 mol % base (t-BuOK), while the hydrogenation of ketones takes place already at 50 °C, with a catalyst loading of 1 mol % and 5 mol % of base. In both cases, a hydrogen pressure of 50 bar was applied.

Herein, a hierarchical magnetic mesoporous microsphere was successfully prepared as a photocatalyst via a simple and reproducible route. Typically, Pd nanoparticles (NPs) were evenly dispersed on the surface of a magnetic Fe3O4 microsphere and then coated with a porous anatase-TiO2 shell to form Fe3O4-Pd@TiO2. The core-shell structure could efficiently suppress the conglomeration of Pd NPs during the calcination process at high temperatures as well as the shedding of Pd during the catalytic reaction process in the liquid phase. The as-prepared photocatalyst was characterized by TEM, XRD, XPS, VSM, and N2 adsorption-desorption. Fe3O4-Pd@TiO2 exhibits high photocatalytic activity for the selective reduction of aromatic cyanides to aromatic primary amines in an acidic aqueous solution. Moreover, this magnetic photocatalyst could be easily recovered from the reaction mixture by an external magnet and reused five times without significant reduction in its activity. The superior photocatalytic efficiency of the proposed photocatalyst may be attributed to its high charge separation efficiency and charge transfer rate, which are caused by the Schottky junction and large interface area. The results indicate that the strategy of coating the active noble metal sites with a mesoporous semiconductor shell has a significant potential for application in metal-semiconductor-based photocatalytic reactions.

Most current processes for the general synthesis of primary amines by reductive amination are performed with enormously excessive amounts of hazardous ammonia. It remains unclear how catalysts should be designed to regulate amination reaction dynamics at a low ammonia-to-substrate ratio for the quantitative synthesis of primary amines from the corresponding carbonyl compounds. Herein we show a facile control of the reaction selectivity in the layered boron nitride supported ruthenium catalyzed reductive amination reaction. Specifically, locating ruthenium to the edge surface of layered boron nitride leads to an increased hydrogenation activity owing to the enhanced interfacial electronic effects between ruthenium and the edge surface of boron nitride. This enables self-accelerated reductive amination reactions which quantitatively synthesize structurally diverse primary amines by reductive amination of carbonyl compounds with twofold ammonia.

This work includes an effective comparison of metallic ruthenium and nickel nanoparticles loaded on montmorillonite clay (MMT) for reductive amination reaction of biomass-derived molecules. It comprises an eco-friendly reaction using water as a solvent, utilizing molecular hydrogen and liquor ammonia (25% aq. solution) for the synthesis of primary amines from bio-derived aldehydes within 3–10 h of reaction time. Various parameters such as temperature, hydrogen pressure, substrate/ammonia concentration ratio, and reaction time were optimized while comparing the selectivity of primary amines for both catalysts. The applicability scope of these catalysts was explored with a library of aryl and heterocyclic aldehydes. The reductive amination of crude furfural extracted from biomass feedstock (rice husk) and pure xylose sugar was tested, showing yields in the range of 11–36%, to show the wider industrial scope of both nanocomposites. Gram scale conversion was also carried out to showcase the bulk scalability of the Ru/MMT catalyst.

The development of Earth-abundant, reusable and non-toxic heterogeneous catalysts to be applied in the pharmaceutical industry for bio-active relevant compound synthesis remains an important goal of general chemical research.N-methylated compounds, as one of the most essential bioactive compounds, have been widely used in the fine and bulk chemical industries for the production of high-value chemicals. Herein, an environmentally friendly and simplified method for the preparation of graphene encapsulated Ni/NiO nanoalloy catalysts (Ni/NiO@C) was developed for the first time, for the highly selective synthesis ofN-methylated compounds using various functional amines and aldehydes under easy to handle, and industrially applicable conditions. A large number of primary and secondary amines (more than 70 examples) could be converted to the correspondingN,N-dimethylamines with the participation of different functional aldehydes, with an average yield of over 95%. A gram-scale synthesis also demonstrated a similar yield when compared with the benchmark test. In addition, it was further proved that the catalyst could easily be recycled because of its intrinsic magnetism and reused up to 10 times without losing its activity and selectivity. Also, for the first time, the tandem synthesis ofN,N-dimethylamine products in a one-pot process, using only a single earth-abundant metal catalyst, whose activity and selectivity were more than 99% and 94%, respectively, for all tested substrates, was developed. Overall, the advantages of this newly developed method include operational simplicity, high stability, easy recyclability, cost-effectiveness of the catalyst, and good functional group compatibility for the synthesis ofN-methylation products as well as the industrially applicable tandem synthesis process.

Developing mild and efficient catalytic methods for the selective synthesis of amines is a longstanding research objective. In this respect, catalytic deoxygenative amide reduction has proven to be promising but challenging, as this approach necessitates selective C–O bond cleavage. Herein, we report the selective hydroboration of primary, secondary, and tertiary amides at room temperature catalyzed by an earth-abundant-metal catalyst, Zr-H, for accessing diverse amines. Various readily reducible functional groups, such as esters, alkynes, and alkenes, were well tolerated. Furthermore, the methodology was extended to the synthesis of bio- and drug-derived amines. Detailed mechanistic studies revealed a reaction pathway entailing aldehyde and amido complex formation via an unusual C–N bond cleavage-reformation process, followed by C–O bond cleavage.

Transformation of relatively less reactive functional groups under catalyst-free conditions is an interesting aspect and requires a typical protocol. Herein, we report the synthesis of various primary, secondary, and tertiary amines through hydroboration of amides using pinacolborane under catalyst-free and solvent-free conditions. The deoxygenative hydroboration of primary and secondary amides proceeded with excellent conversions. The comparatively less reactive tertiary amides were also converted to the corresponding N,N-diamines in moderate yields under catalyst-free conditions, although alcohols were obtained as a minor product.

Here, we report the transformation of nitrile compounds in a hydrogen atmosphere. Catalyzed by a cobalt/tetraphosphine complex, hydrogenative coupling of unprotected indoles with nitriles proceeds smoothly in a basic medium, yielding C3 alkylated indoles. In addition, the direct hydrogenation of nitriles under the same conditions yielded primary amines. Isotope labeling experiments, along with a series of control experiments, revealed a reaction pathway that involves nucleophilic addition of indoles and 1,4-reduction of a conjugate imine intermediate. Different from reductive alkylation of indoles under an acidic condition, E1cB elimination is believed to occur in this base-promoted hydrogenative coupling reaction.
