Reduction of aromatic and heteroaromatic nitro compounds to the corresponding amino compounds was achieved by indium/ammonium chloride induced reaction in aqueous ethanol. This method was extended for the preparation of large quantities of 6-aminochrysene in excellent yield.

The hydrogenation of heterocyclic nitroaromatics is of great importance in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis of key intermediates. However, high selectivity is difficult to achieve in conventional batch reactors owing to severe back mixing and poor mass transfer performance, resulting in the high requirement for subsequent separation processes. In this work, a continuous flow system based on a micropacked bed reactor is developed for the selective hydrogenation of heterocyclic nitroaromatics and the reductions of 5-nitroisoquinoline to 5-aminoisoquinoline and 5-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline are selected as the model reactions. With the optimal reaction conditions, maximal yields of 99.9% (5-aminoisoquinoline) and 99.3% (5-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroisoquinoline) are obtained successfully. Moreover, this system exhibits remarkable performance for the selective hydrogenation of relevant heterocyclic nitroaromatics with all yields beyond the level of 97.5%. The continuous flow system enables efficient hydrogenation of heterocyclic nitroaromatics and remarkable selectivity of target products with shorter reaction time and safer operation compared with batch reactors.

Sustainable development demands an environmentally friendly and efficient method for the hydrogenation of organic molecules, including the hydrogenation of functionalized nitroarenes. In this study, a highly active and selective metal–organic framework-supported palladium catalyst was prepared for the catalytic hydrogenation of nitroarenes. High selectivity (>99%) and excellent yield (98%) of aniline were realized after 2 hours in ethanol under hydrogen (1 atm) at room temperature. The reductions were successfully carried out in the presence of a wide range of other reducible functional groups. More importantly, the catalyst was very stable without the loss of its catalytic activity after five cycles.
Direct conversion of phenols into primary anilines with hydrazine catalyzed by palladium

Primary anilines are essential building blocks to synthesize various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, pigments, electronic materials, and others. To date, the syntheses of primary anilines mostly rely on the reduction of nitroarenes or the transition-metal-catalyzed Ullmann, Buchwald-Hartwig and Chan-Lam cross-coupling reactions with ammonia, in which non-renewable petroleum-based chemicals are typically used as feedstocks via multiple step syntheses. A long-standing scientific challenge is to synthesize various primary anilines directly from renewable sources. Herein, we report a general method to directly convert a broad range of phenols into the corresponding primary anilines with the cheap and widely available hydrazine as both amine and hydride sources with simple Pd/C as the catalyst.
