A highly sustainable catalytic protocol for the coupling of alcohols and amines for selective monoalkylated amines using Ni(II)-NΛNΛO pincer type complexes through the borrowing hydrogen methodology is described. An array of Ni(II) catalysts (1-3) was synthesized and characterized by various spectral and analytical methods. Furthermore, the distorted square planar geometry of the complexes (1 and 2) was substantiated with single crystal X-ray diffraction study. The inexpensive nickel-based catalytic methodology displays a broad substrate scope for the N-alkylation of aromatic and heteroaromatic amines using a diverse range of primary alcohols with excellent yields up to 97%. The present approach is environmentally benign, which liberates water as the sole byproduct. A short synthesis of drug intermediates such as mepyramine and chloropyramine illustrates the utility of the present protocol.

Novel and efficient base-mediated N-alkylation and amidation of amidines with alcohols have been developed, which can be carried out in one-pot reaction conditions, which allows for the synthesis of a wide range of N-alkyl amines and free amides in good to excellent yields with high atom economy. In contrast to borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen autotransfer or oxidative-type N-alkylation reactions, in which alcohols are activated by transition-metal-catalyzed or oxidative aerobic dehydrogenation, the use of amidines provides an effective surrogate of amines. This circumvents the inherent necessity in N-alkylation of an oxidant or a catalyst to be stabilized by ligands.

Based on the hemilability, a novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-nitrogen-phosphine ligand (1) was synthesized, and the combination of it with [Ru(COD)Cl2]n showed the high activity and selectivity with a low Ru loading of 0.1% for the N-alkylation of amine with alcohol. Especially, for these substrates with pyridine backbone, even if the catalyst loading was as low as 0.01%, good yields (81–95%) of the desired products were achieved.
