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.

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.

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).
