The deoxygenative reduction of amides to amines is a great challenge for resonance-stabilized carboxamide moieties, although this synthetic strategy is an attractive approach to access the corresponding amines. La(CH2C6H4NMe2-o)3, a simple and easily accessible lanthanide complex, was found to be highly efficient not only for secondary and tertiary amide reduction, but also for the most challenging primary reduction with pinacolborane. This protocol exhibited good tolerance for many functional groups and heteroatoms, and could be applied to gram-scale synthesis. The active species in this catalytic cycle was likely a lanthanide hydride.

A selective and efficient route for the deoxygenative reduction of primary to tertiary amides to corresponding amines has been achieved with pinacolborane (HBpin) using simple and readily accessible 2,6-di-tert-butyl phenolate lithium·THF (1a) as a catalyst. Both experimental and DFT studies provide mechanistic insight. This journal is

A new reduction of carbamates to N-methyl amines is presented. The magnesium-catalyzed reduction reaction allows the conversion of cyclic and linear carbamates, including N-Boc protected amines, into the corresponding N-methyl amines and amino alcohols which are of significant interest due to their presence in many biologically active molecules. Furthermore, the reduction can be extended to the formation of N-trideuteromethyl labeled amines.

Paragraph 0095-0098, (2020/02/10)
The invention provides a decyanation method of a nitrile organic compound. The nitrile organic compound shown in a general formula (1), a sodium reagent, crown ether and a proton donor are subjected to decyanation reaction in an organic solvent I to generate an organic compound shown in a general formula (2). According to the method, a Na/15-crown-5/H2O system is adopted, so that nitrile organic matters can be converted into a decyanation product, and the generation of amine byproducts is inhibited. The new method does not need to use liquid ammonia as a solvent, and is safer and more convenient to operate. The required sodium dispersoid is low in price; and the 15-crown-5 can be recycled and repeatedly used. The method has the advantages of good chemical selectivity, wide substrate application range, good functional group compatibility and the like.

Tris[N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)amide]lanthanum (LaNTMS) is an efficient and selective homogeneous catalyst for the deoxygenative reduction of tertiary and secondary amides with pinacolborane (HBpin) at mild temperatures (25-60 °C). The reaction, which yields amines and O(Bpin)2, tolerates nitro, halide, and amino functional groups well, and this amide reduction is completely selective, with the exclusion of both competing inter- and intramolecular alkene/alkyne hydroboration. Kinetic studies indicate that amide reduction obeys an unusual mixed-order rate law which is proposed to originate from saturation of the catalyst complex with HBpin. Kinetic and thermodynamic studies, isotopic labeling, and DFT calculations using energetic span analysis suggest the role of a [(Me3Si)2N]2La-OCHR(NR′2)[HBpin] active catalyst, and hydride transfer is proposed to be ligand-centered. These results add to the growing list of transformations that commercially available LaNTMS is competent to catalyze, further underscoring the value and versatility of lanthanide complexes in homogeneous catalysis.
Frustrated Lewis Pair Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Amides: Halides as Active Lewis Base in the Metal-Free Hydrogen Activation
Sitte, Nikolai A.,Bursch, Markus,Grimme, Stefan,Paradies, Jan
, p. 159 - 162 (2019/01/04)
A method for the metal-free reduction of carboxylic amides using oxalyl chloride as an activating agent and hydrogen as the final reductant is introduced. The reaction proceeds via the hydrogen splitting by B(2,6-F2-C6H3)3 in combination with chloride as the Lewis base. Density functional theory calculations support the unprecedented role of halides as active Lewis base components in the frustrated Lewis pair mediated hydrogen activation. The reaction displays broad substrate scope for tertiary benzoic acid amides and α-branched carboxamides.
Reductive Cleavage of Unactivated Carbon-Cyano Bonds under Ammonia-Free Birch Conditions

, (2019/11/29)
A general protocol for the reductive cleavage of unactivated carbon-cyano bonds in aliphatic nitriles has been achieved under single-electron-transfer conditions using Na/15-crown-5/H2O. Electron is supplied by the electride derived from bench-stable sodium dispersions and recoverable 15-crown-5. H2O provides the proton source and suppresses the reduction of aromatic moieties. Compared with the Na/NH3 electride system generated under traditional Birch conditions, this ammonia-free electride system is more practical and features better reactivity and chemoselectivity for the decyanations of a broad range of aliphatic nitriles.

We report an efficient protocol for the catalytic chemo-selective reduction of tert-amides with pinacolborane (HBpin) to afford the corresponding amines in high yields using aluminium complexes [κ2-{Ph2P(X)NC9H6N}Al(Me)2] [X = S (2a), Se (2b)] as pre-catalysts at room temperature. The aluminium complexes were prepared from the reaction of [Ph2P(X)NC9H6N] [X = S (1a), Se (1b)] and trimethylaluminium in toluene. The solid-state structure of complex 2b is established. Tertiary amides with a wide array of electron-withdrawing and electron-donating functional groups were easily converted to the desired products through the selective cleavage of the amides' CO bond by aluminium hydride as an active species. A kinetic study of the catalytic reaction is also reported.

N-Methylation of amines with methanol proceeds at room temperature in the presence of a silver-loaded titanium dioxide (Ag/TiO2) photocatalyst under UV-vis light irradiation. This method allows facile synthesis/isolation of N-methylamines bearing various functional groups including N-benzyl, N-allyl, N-Boc, hydroxyl, ether, acetal, carboxamide, formamide, and olefin groups.
