Reaction of (1-azabuta-1,3-diene)tricarbonyliron(0) complexes with sodium borohydride under microwave conditions

Reaction of (1-azabuta-1,3-diene)tricarbonyliron(0) complexes with sodium borohydride under microwave irradiation leads to formation of saturated secondary amines. When sodium borodeuteride is used for the reaction the products are 1,2,3-trideutero second

A highly efficient Co-based catalyst fabricated by coordination-assisted impregnation strategy towards tandem catalytic functionalization of nitroarenes with various alcohols

A well-defined hexamethylenetetramine (abbreviated as HMTA) based two-dimensional (2D) MOFs metalloligand (termed Zn-HMTA), with free uncoordinated tertiary amine groups, has been synthesized via solution diffusion method for the first time. The crystal structure of 2D Zn-HMTA metalloligand was determined by the single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). The SCXRD and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses have revealed that the 2D Zn-HMTA metalloligand is rich in- free tertiary amine groups, which are of strong coordination ability to transition metal ions (e.g. Ni2+, Co2+, Zn2+, Cu2+). As a result, a 2D bimetallic Co@Zn-HMTA MOFs was synthesized via coordination-assisted impregnation (CAI) strategy attributed to the unique feature of strong coordinated ability of free tertiary amine groups. Furthermore, a series of self-supported Co-ZnO-CN nanocatalysts were afforded upon the as-synthesized Co@Zn-HMTA MOFs served as a self-sacrificial template for pyrolysis at different temperatures. The optimized catalyst (termed as Co-ZnO@CN-CAI) demonstrated the excellent catalytic performance for hydrogenation-alkylation tandem reaction in comparison with the classic ZnO@CN composite (derived from Zn-HMTA MOFs) supported metallic Co catalyst (Co-ZnO@CN-IWI) prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method. Moreover, the kinetic study was also performed to confirm that the alkylation is the rate-determining step in the hydrogenation-alkylation tandem reaction. The origin of enhanced catalytic performance of Co-ZnO@CN-CAI and the role of Co@Zn-HMTA MOFs precursor have been explored by way of various characterizations, e.g. HADDF-STEM-EDS, SEM-EDS, 13C MAS NMR, XRD, Raman and XPS, etc. It is anticipated that the prepared low-cost and easily prepared 2D Zn-HMTA metalloligand will become a general template for synthesis of highly self-supported catalysts with coordination-assisted impregnation strategy (CAI) for various catalytic reactions.

PH-Mediated Selective Synthesis of N-Allylic Alkylation or N-Alkylation Amines with Allylic Alcohols via an Iridium Catalyst in Water

Amination of allylic alcohols is an effective approach in the facile synthesis of N-allylic alkylation or N-alkylation amines. Recently, a series of catalysts were devised to push forward this transformation. However, current synthetic methods are typical

Chemoselective heterogeneous iridium catalyzed hydrogenation of cinnamalaniline

Selective hydrogenation of unsaturated imines over heterogeneous catalysts is an ecologically feasible and effective way to produce commercially valuable saturated imines and unsaturated amines under mild conditions, avoiding the utilization of toxic halides. The liquid-phase hydrogenation of a model imine, cinnamalaniline, over Ir, Ru, Pd and Au catalysts was studied in polar protic (methanol, 2-propanol), polar aprotic (methyltert-butyl ether) and non-polar aprotic (toluene) solvents at 40-80 °C under atmospheric hydrogen pressure. Different metal oxides (Al2O3, ZrO2, SiO2) and carbon composites based on carbon nitrides synthesized by pyrolysis of ethylenediamine or melamine modified by KOH, HNO3, NH4Cl or TEOS (including template KIT-6), porous carbon (samples prepared by pyrolysis of sucrose, including template KIT-6) and mesoporous carbon Sibunit were applied to study the effect of the support. Among the tested metals, iridium exhibited the most promising catalytic performance in terms of hydrogenation activity and chemoselectivity towards unsaturated amine. The use of Ir on carbon nitrides (C3N4-NH4Cl, CxNy-KIT-6) and amphoteric metal oxides (ZrO2, Al2O3) in nonpolar aprotic toluene solvent provided the best selectivity towards unsaturated amine by minimizing oligomerization. Computational studies indicate that the selective hydrogenation of the CN group on Ir results from a favorable cinnamalaniline adsorption geometry at high surface coverage. Comparable heterogeneously catalyzed highly chemoselective hydrogenation of unsaturated imine into unsaturated amine under atmospheric hydrogen pressure and low temperatures has not been reported previously.

Effect of the ancillary ligand in N-heterocyclic carbene iridium(III) catalyzed N-alkylation of amines with alcohols

A series of air-stable N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) Ir(III) complexes (Ir1-6), bearing various combinations of chlorine, pyridine and NHC ligands, were assayed for the N-alkylation of amines with alcohols. It was found that Ir3, with two monodentate 1,3-bis-methyl-imidazolylidene (IMe) ligands, emerged as the most active complex. A large variety of amines and primary alcohols were efficiently converted into mono-N-alkylated amines in 53–96% yields. As a special highlight, for the challenging MeOH, selective N-monomethylation could be achieved using KOH as a base under an air atmosphere. Moreover, this catalytic system was successfully applied to the gram-scale synthesis of some valuable compounds.

Ruthenium(ii) complexes with N-heterocyclic carbene-phosphine ligands for theN-alkylation of amines with alcohols

Metal hydride complexes are key intermediates forN-alkylation of amines with alcohols by the borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen autotransfer (BH/HA) strategy. Reactivity tuning of metal hydride complexes could adjust the dehydrogenation of alcohols and the hydrogenation of imines. Herein we report ruthenium(ii) complexes with hetero-bidentate N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-phosphine ligands, which realize smart pathway selection in theN-alkylated reactionviareactivity tuning of [Ru-H] species by hetero-bidentate ligands. In particular, complex6cbwith a phenyl wingtip group and BArF?counter anion, is shown to be one of the most efficient pre-catalysts for this transformation (temperature is as low as 70 °C, neat conditions and catalyst loading is as low as 0.25 mol%). A large variety of (hetero)aromatic amines and primary alcohols were efficiently converted into mono-N-alkylated amines in good to excellent isolated yields. Notably, aliphatic amines, challenging methanol and diamines could also be transformed into the desired products. Detailed control experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations provide insights to understand the mechanism and the smart pathway selectionvia[Ru-H] species in this process.

Tungsten-Catalyzed Direct N-Alkylation of Anilines with Alcohols

The implementation of non-noble metals mediated chemistry is a major goal in homogeneous catalysis. Borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen autotransfer (BH/HA) reaction, as a straightforward and sustainable synthetic method, has attracted considerable attention in the development of non-noble metal catalysts. Herein, we report a tungsten-catalyzed N-alkylation reaction of anilines with primary alcohols via BH/HA. This phosphine-free W(phen)(CO)4 (phen=1,10-phenthroline) system was demonstrated as a practical and easily accessible in-situ catalysis for a broad range of amines and alcohols (up to 49 examples, including 16 previously undisclosed products). Notably, this tungsten system can tolerate numerous functional groups, especially the challenging substrates with sterically hindered substituents, or heteroatoms. Mechanistic insights based on experimental and computational studies are also provided.
