The hydrogenation of amides to amines has been developed by using the catalyst [Ru(H)2(CO)(Triphos)] (Triphos=1,1,1-tri(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane) and catalytic boron Lewis acids such as B(C6F5)3 or BF3?Et2O as additives. The reaction provides an efficient method for the preparation of secondary amines from amides in good yields with high selectivity.

The first general and efficient cobalt-catalyzed deoxygenative hydrogenation of amides to amines is presented. The optimal catalytic system based on a combination of [Co(NTf2)2] and (p-anisyl)triphos (L3) in the presence of [Me3SiOTf] as acidic co-catalyst facilitates the direct hydrogenation of a broad range of amides to the corresponding amines under mild conditions. A set of control experiments indicate that, after the initial reduction of the amide carboxylic group to the well-known hemiaminal intermediate, the reaction mainly proceeds through C-O bond cleavage though other pathways might be also involved to a minor extent.

A ruthenium(II)-catalyzed deoxygenative transfer hydrogenation of amides to amines using HCO2H/NEt3 as the reducing agent is reported for the first time. The catalyst system consisting of [Ru(2-methylallyl)2(COD)], 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl) ethane (triphos) and Bis(trifluoromethane sulfonimide) (HNTf2) performed well for deoxygenative reduction of various secondary and tertiary amides into the corresponding amines in high yields with excellent selectivities, and exhibits high tolerance toward functional groups including those that are reduction-sensitive. The choice of hydrogen source and acid co-catalyst is critical for catalysis. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reductive amination of the in situ generated alcohol and amine via borrowing hydrogen is the dominant pathway. (Figure presented.).
