The first mild, in situ, single-pot, high-yielding well-screened copper (II) salt-based catalyst system utilizing the hydrogen surrogacy of sodium borohydride for selective hydrogenation of a broad range of nitro substrates into the corresponding amine under habitancy of water or methanol like green solvents have been described. Moreover, this catalytic system can also activate various functional groups for hydride reduction within prompted time, with low catalyst-loading, without any requirement of high pressure or molecular hydrogen supply. Notably, this system explores a great potential to substitute expensive traditional hydrogenation methodologies and thus offers a greener and simple hydrogenative strategy in the field of organic synthesis.

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were modified with carboxylic acid functional groups (MWCNTs-(COOH)n) prior to decoration with Fe3O4 nanoparticles. A further modification step by polyethyleneimine (PEI) resulted in Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI which provided a suitable platform for coordination and in situ reduction of silver ions to obtain an Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI-Ag nanocomposite with highly dispersed Ag nanoparticles. The Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI-Ag hybrid material was characterized by various techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), vibrating sample magnetometry (VSM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and was used as an efficient catalyst for chemoselective reduction of nitroaromatic and nitrile compounds to their corresponding amines in aqueous solution at ambient temperature. Nitrofurazone, a cytotoxic antibiotic, as a non-aromatic example was also reduced selectively at the nitro group without reduction of the other functionalities in the presence of Fe3O4-MWCNTs?PEI-Ag. The catalyst was magnetically recoverable and maintained its activity for at least six cycles without considerable loss of efficiency.

The use of non-noble metal catalysts with high activity is of great importance for organic transformations. Herein, nitrogen-doped carbon supported cobalt catalysts with high surface area up to 981.2 m2/g were prepared via the simple pyrolysis of cobalt coordinated organic polymers with silica as the hard template. The pyrolysis temperature showed a great effect on the structure and properties of the as-prepared catalysts. The Co@NC-800 catalyst with the pyrolysis temperature of 800 °C demonstrated a high activity for the selective reductive amination of carbonyl compounds to primary amines with ammonia and hydrogen. Structurally-diverse primary amines with yields in the range from 81.8% to 100% were attained under the optimal conditions. The Co@NC-800 catalyst could be reused without the loss of its activity. The Co@NC-800 catalyst demonstrated comparable activity as the reported heterogeneous noble metal catalysts.
