Upon irradiation in 2-propanol, p-nitroacetophenone 1 was reduced via the triplet state to p-hydroxyammoacetophenone 5 which was further reduced top-aminoacetophenone 2 and 4,4′-diacetylazobenzene 4. Similar irradiation of 5 also gave 2 and 4, and its oxidation by oxygen gave 4,4′-diacetylazoxybenzene 3. Photolysis of monomeric p-nitrosoacetophenone 6 afforded acetophenone and 3 that were not produced during the irradiation of 1 Possible photoreaction pathways were discussed on the basis of published mechanisms.

Ru/TiO2 catalysts exhibit excellent catalytic performance for selective reduction of 4-nitroacetophenone to 4-aminoacetophenone at normal temperature and atmospheric hydrogen pressure. Moreover, 99.9% selectivity to 4-aminoacetophenone can be obtained over 2.7 wt% Ru/TiO2(anatase) catalyst even in a relatively wide temperature (55-115 °C) and time (1-12 h) range. Its excellent catalytic performance is derived from the activation of H2 on the Ru nanoparticles at atmospheric pressure and the strong interaction of nitro groups with the support surface. Additionally, Ru nanoparticles supported on different crystalline TiO2 phases (anatase and rutile) result in different reaction pathways for 4-nitroacetophenone. Since the Ti-Ti distance on the rutile surface is smaller than that on the anatase surface, the hydroxylamine species adsorbed on the Ti atoms of rutile are more susceptible to the coupling reaction. Therefore, Ru/TiO2(rutile) causes a series of intermediates to accumulate during the conversion process, while Ru/TiO2(anatase) allows the highly selective conversion of 4-nitroacetophenone to 4-aminophenone. In addition, Ru/TiO2(anatase) can achieve chemoselective reduction of nitroaromatics to the corresponding anilines in the presence of -CN, -CHO, and -COOH, especially nitroaromatics containing CC and CC, indicating the excellent applicability.

Polystyrene stabilized Iridium (Ir@PS) nanoparticles (NPs) as a heterogeneous catalyst have been developed and characterized by IR, UV–Vis, SEM, TEM, EDX and XRD studies. The prepared Ir@PS catalyst showed excellent reactivity for chemo- and regio-selective controlled-hydrogenation of functionalized nitroarenes to corresponding N-arylhydroxylamine using hydrazine hydrate as reducing source and environmentally benign polyethylene glycol (PEG-400) as green solvent. The present methodology was applied for vast substrate scope and found to be compatible with wide range of reducible functional groups. The reaction performed at 85 °C or ambient temperature and completed within 5–80 minutes. The catalyst can easily be filtered out from reaction mixture and reusable.

We report the selective photoinduced reduction of nitroarenes to N-arylhydroxylamines. The present methodology facilitates this transformation in the absence of catalyst or additives and uses only light and methylhydrazine. This noncatalytic photoinduced transformation proceeds with a broad scope, excellent functional-group tolerance, and high yields. The potential of this protocol reflects on the selective and straightforward conversion of two general antibiotics, azomycin and chloramphenicol, to the bioactive hydroxylamine species.

A mild and operationally simple protocol for the deoxygenation of a variety of heteroaryl N-oxides and nitroarenes has been developed. A mixture of substrate and Hantzsch ester is proposed to result in an electron donor-acceptor complex, which upon blue-light irradiation undergoes photoinduced electron transfer between the two reactants to afford the products. N-oxide deoxygenation is demonstrated with 22 examples of functionally diverse substrates, and the chemoselective reduction of nitroarenes to the corresponding hydroxylamines is also shown.
Selective hydrogenation of nitroaromatics to: N -arylhydroxylamines in a micropacked bed reactor with passivated catalyst

In this contribution, a protocol was established for the selective catalytic hydrogenation of nitroarenes to the corresponding N-arylhydroxylamines. The reduction of 1-(4-chlorophenyl)-3-((2-nitrobenzyl)oxy)-1H-pyrazole, an intermediate in the synthesis of the antifungal reagent pyraclostrobin that includes carbon-chlorine bonds, benzyl groups, carbon-carbon double bonds and other structures that are easily reduced, was chosen as the model reaction for catalyst evaluation and condition optimization. Extensive passivant evaluation showed that RANEY-nickel treated with ammonia/DMSO (1 : 10, v/v) afforded the optimal result, especially with a particle size of 400-500 mesh. To combine the modified catalyst with continuous-flow reaction technology, the reaction was conducted at room temperature, rendering the desired product with a conversion rate of 99.4% and a selectivity of 99.8%. The regeneration of catalytic activity was also studied, and an in-column strategy was developed by pumping the passivate liquid overnight. Finally, the generality of the method was explored, and 7 substrates were developed, most of which showed a good conversion rate and selectivity, indicating that the method has a certain degree of generality.

, (2021/06/14)
A consecutive 2-step synthesis of N-unprotected polysubstituted indoles bearing an electron-withdrawing group at the C-3 position from readily available nitroarenes is reported. The protocol is based on the [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement of N-oxyenamines generated by the DABCO-catalyzed reaction of N-arylhydroxylamines and conjugated terminal alkynes, and delivers indoles endowed with a wide array of substitution patterns and topologies.

Polystyrene-supported ruthenium nanoparticles enable the selective hydrazine-mediated reduction of nitroarenes to hydroxylamine products in high yield and selectivity. Key to obtaining the hydroxylamine product in good yield was the use of organic solvents capable of solubilizing the polystyrene-supported nanoparticle catalyst. N-aryl and N-heteroaryl hydroxylamines are generated under exceptionally mild conditions and in the presence of a various easily reduced functional groups.

The one-pot two-step intramolecular aryl and heteroaryl C-H trifluoromethoxylation recently reported by our group has provided a general, scalable, and operationally simple approach to access a wide range of unprecedented and valuable OCF3-containing building blocks. Herein we describe our investigations to elucidate its reaction mechanism. Experimental data indicate that the O-trifluoromethylation of N-(hetero)aryl-N-hydroxylamine derivatives is a radical process, whereas the OCF3-migration step proceeds via a heterolytic cleavage of the N-OCF3 bond followed by rapid recombination of a short-lived ion pair. Computational studies further support the proposed ion pair reaction pathway for the OCF3-migration process. We hope that the current study would provide useful insights for the development of new transformations using versatile N-(hetero)aryl-N-hydroxylamine synthons.
