A visible-light photocalytic method for the chemoselective transfer hydrogenation of imines in batch and continuous flow is described. The reaction utilizes Et3N as both hydrogen source and single-electron donor, enabling the selective reduction of imines derived from diarylketimines containing other reducible functional groups including nitriles, halides, esters, and ketones. The dual role of Et3N was confirmed by fluorescence quenching measurements, transient absorption spectroscopy, and deuterium-labeling studies. Continuous-flow processing facilitates straightforward scale-up of the reaction.

The syntheses of 2-(di-tertbutylphosphino)-N,N-dimethylaniline (L1, 71%) and 2-(di-1-adamantylphosphino)-N,N-dimethylaniline (L2, 74%), and their application in BuchwaldHartwig amination, are reported. In combination with [Pd(allyl)Cl]2 or [Pd(cinnamyl)Cl]2, these structurally simple and air-stable P,N ligands enable the cross-coupling of aryl and heteroaryl chlorides, including those bearing as substituents enolizable ketones, ethers, esters, carboxylic acids, phenols, alcohols, olefins, amides, and halogens, to a diverse range of amine and related substrates that includes primary alkyl- and arylamines, cyclic and acyclic secondary amines, N-H imines, hydrazones, lithium amide, and ammonia. In many cases, the reactions can be performed at low catalyst loadings (0.5-0.02 mol % Pd) with excellent functional group tolerance and chemoselectivity. Examples of cross-coupling reactions involving 1,4-bromochlorobenzene and iodobenzene are also reported. Under similar conditions, inferior catalytic performance was achieved when using Pd(OAc)2, PdCl2, [PdCl2(cod)] (cod = 1,5-cyclooctadiene), [PdCl 2(MeCN)2], or [Pd2(dba)3] (dba = dibenzylideneacetone) in combination with L1 or L2, or by use of [Pd(allyl)Cl]2 or [Pd(cinnamyl)Cl]2 with variants of L1 and L2 bearing less basic or less sterically demanding substituents on phosphorus or lacking an ortto-dimethylamino fragment. Given current limitations associated with established ligand classes with regard to maintaining high activity across the diverse possible range of C-N coupling applications, L1 and L2 represent unusually versatile ligand systems for the cross-coupling of aryl chlorides and amines
