Yablokov,Smel'tsova,Zelyaev,Mitrofanova
, p. 1704 - 1706 (2009)
Rates of thermal decomposition of glycine, alanine, and serine are described by the equation of first order reaction in the temperature range 200-300°C. Apparent rate constants and apparent activation energies of decomposition of α-amino acids were evaluated. It was found that the main gaseos reaction product is carbon dioxide.

Schmidt-R?ntsch, Till,Verplancke, Hendrik,Lienert, Jonas N.,Demeshko, Serhiy,Otte, Matthias,Van Trieste, Gerard P.,Reid, Kaleb A.,Reibenspies, Joseph H.,Powers, David C.,Holthausen, Max C.,Schneider, Sven

C?H amination and amidation by catalytic nitrene transfer are well-established and typically proceed via electrophilic attack of nitrenoid intermediates. In contrast, the insertion of (formal) terminal nitride ligands into C?H bonds is much less developed and catalytic nitrogen atom transfer remains unknown. We here report the synthesis of a formal terminal nitride complex of palladium. Photocrystallographic, magnetic, and computational characterization support the assignment as an authentic metallonitrene (Pd?N) with a diradical nitrogen ligand that is singly bonded to PdII. Despite the subvalent nitrene character, selective C?H insertion with aldehydes follows nucleophilic selectivity. Transamidation of the benzamide product is enabled by reaction with N3SiMe3. Based on these results, a photocatalytic protocol for aldehyde C?H trimethylsilylamidation was developed that exhibits inverted, nucleophilic selectivity as compared to typical nitrene transfer catalysis. This first example of catalytic C?H nitrogen atom transfer offers facile access to primary amides after deprotection.

A simple and efficient system for the hydration and α-deuteration of nitriles to form amides, α-deuterated nitriles, and α-deuterated amides catalyzed by a single pincer complex of the earth-abundant manganese capable of metal-ligand cooperation is reported. The reaction is selective and tolerates a wide range of functional groups, giving the corresponding amides in moderate to good yields. Changing the solvent from tert-butanol to toluene and using D2O results in formation of α-deuterated nitriles in high selectivity. Moreover, α-deuterated amides can be obtained in one step directly from nitriles and D2O in THF. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest the transformations contributing toward activation of the nitriles via a metal-ligand cooperative pathway, generating the manganese ketimido and enamido pincer complexes as the key intermediates for further transformations.

An efficient protocol for heterogeneous hydroaminocarbonylation of olefins with ammonium chloride without addition of acid additive has been developed for the first time. We successfully synthesized the Pd@POPs-PPh3 catalyst through a solvothermal synthetic method. Under this heterogeneous catalytic system, C2-C6 olefins displayed good yields and TON, and a yield of 66% of propionamide and TON = 1400 were obtained under mild reaction conditions (403 K, Pethylene = 0.5 MPa, PCO = 2.5 MPa), which is a little higher than those in the homogeneous system. This catalytic system has the advantage of easy separation of product and catalyst, as well as good stability. Uniform dispersion of Pd active sites, strong coordination bond between P and Pd, high surface area, large pore volume and hierarchical porosity of Pd@POPs-PPh3 were confirmed by a series of characterizations, which is believed to be the keys for the good activity and stability of hydroaminocarbonylation reaction.

Three new arene-ruthenium(II) complexes were prepared by treating [{RuCl(μ-Cl)(η6-arene)}2] (η6-arene = p-cymene) dimer with tri(2-furyl)phosphine (PFu3) and 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA), respectively to obtain [RuCl2(η6-arene)PFu3] [Ru]-1, [RuCl(η6-arene)(PFu3)(PTA)]BF4 [Ru]-2 and [RuCl(η6-arene)(PFu3)2]BF4 [Ru]-3. All the complexes were structurally identified using analytical and spectroscopic methods including single-crystal X-ray studies. The effectiveness of resulting complexes as potential homogeneous catalysts for selective hydration of different nitriles into corresponding amides in aqueous medium and air atmosphere was explored. There was a remarkable difference in catalytic activity of the catalysts depending on the nature and number of phosphorus-donor ligands and sites available for catalysis. Experimental studies performed using structural analogues of efficient catalyst concluded a structural-activity relationship for the higher catalytic activity of [Ru]-1, being able to convert huge variety of aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic nitriles. The use of eco-friendly water as a solvent, open atmosphere and avoidance of any organic solvent during the catalytic reactions prove the reported process to be truly green and sustainable.

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).

Herein, a highly stable, porous, multifunctional and metal-free catalyst was developed, which exhibited significant catalytic performance in the oxidation of amines and transfer hydrogenation of nitriles under mild conditions; this could be attributed to the presence of numerous active sites and their outstanding BET surface area. The obtained results showed that most of the yields of imines exceeded 90%, and the cycling performance of the catalyst could be at least seven runs without any decay in the reaction activity, which could be comparable to those of metal catalysts. Subsequently, a kinetic study has demonstrated that the apparent activation energy for the direct synthesis of imines from amines is 67.39 kJ mol-1, which has been performed to testify that the catalytic performances are rational. Via catalyst characterizations and experimental data, graphitic-N has been proven to be the active site of the catalyst. Hence, this study is beneficial to comprehend the mechanism of action of a metal-free N-doped carbon catalyst in the formation of imines.

A first example of silver(I) N-heterocyclic carbene (Ag(I)-NHC) catalyzed on-water synthesis of primary amides by hydration of nitriles under mild reaction conditions is described. This organometallic catalytic system has excellent tolerance for various homo-aromatic, hetero-aromatic and aliphatic nitriles to afford primary amides in good yields in neat water.

The use of triglycerides as an important class of biomass is an effective strategy to realize a more sustainable society. Herein, three heterogeneous catalytic methods are reported for the selective one-pot transformation of triglycerides into value-added chemicals: i) the reductive amination of triglycerides into fatty amines with aqueous NH3 under H2 promoted by ZrO2-supported Pt clusters; ii) the amidation of triglycerides under gaseous NH3 catalyzed by high-silica H-beta (Hβ) zeolite at 180 °C; iii) the Hβ-promoted synthesis of nitriles from triglycerides and gaseous NH3 at 220 °C. These methods are widely applicable to the transformation of various triglycerides (C4–C18 skeletons) into the corresponding amines, amides, and nitriles.

A new family of O, N donor-functionalized (4-phenoxyphenylazo)-2-naphthol/4-substituted phenol-based ligands (HL1-HL4)has been synthesized. The prepared ligands were successfully utilized for the access of a series of ruthenium(II)carbonyl complexes of the type [Ru(L)Cl(CO)(EPh3)3](E = phosphine/arsine), (L = 1-(4-phenoxyphenylazo)-2-naphthol (HL1), 2-(4-phenoxyphenylazo)-4-chlorophenol (HL2), 2-(4-phenoxyphenylazo)-4-methylphenol (HL3)and 2-(4-phenoxyphenylazo)-4-methoxyphenol (HL4)). All of the ruthenium(II)carbonyl complexes and ligands have been fully characterized by FT-IR, UV–visible, 1H NMR, 31P NMR, mass spectrometry and CHN analysis. The ligands have been analyzed by 13C NMR. The UV–visible spectroscopic study reveals that both the ligands and Ru(II)complexes exhibit excellent charge transfer transitions. This is the basic criteria for the oxidative amidation reaction, which is an influential strategy for the transformation of oxygenated organic compounds to the profitable amides. However, this catalytic process makes more impact on the application of new divalent ruthenium(II)azo compounds as catalyst in a single-pot conversion of aldehydes to amides in the presence of NaHCO3.
