Flow reaction methods have been developed to selectively synthesize tertiary, secondary, and primary amines depending on heterogeneous platinum-group metal species under catalytic hydrogenation conditions using nitriles as starting materials. A 10 % Pd/C-packed catalyst cartridge affords symmetrically substituted tertiary amines in good to excellent yields. A 10 % Rh/C-packed catalyst cartridge enables the divergent synthesis of secondary and primary amines, with either cyclohexane or acetic acid as a solvent, respectively. Reaction parameters, such as the metal catalyst, solvent, and reaction temperature, and continuous-flow conditions, such as flow direction and second support of the catalyst in a catalyst cartridge, are quite important for controlling the reaction between the hydrogenation of nitriles and nucleophilic attack of in situ-generated amines to imine intermediates. A wide variety of aliphatic and aromatic nitriles could be highly selectively transformed into the corresponding tertiary, secondary, and primary amines by simply changing the metal species of the catalyst or flow parameters. Furthermore, the selective continuous-flow methodologies are applied over at least 72 h to afford three different types of amines in 80–99 % yield without decrease in catalytic activities.

The sulfated polyborate catalyzed an efficient and chemoselective N-tert-butyloxycarbonylation of amines under ultrasonic irradiation is developed. A broad substrate scope has been demonstrated for N-Boc protection of various primary/secondary amines. It allows converting several aliphatic/aryl/heteroaryl amines, amino alcohol, aminoester, and chiral amines to their N-Boc-protected derivatives under solvent-free conditions with excellent yields. The protocol has several advantages such as easy catalyst, and product isolation, short reaction time, excellent yields, outstanding chemoselectivity, and catalyst recyclability, among others. This makes the process practicable, economical, and environmentally benign.
Non-innocent Radical Ion Intermediates in Photoredox Catalysis: Parallel Reduction Modes Enable Coupling of Diverse Aryl Chlorides

We describe a photocatalytic system that elicits potent photoreductant activity from conventional photocatalysts by leveraging radical anion intermediates generated in situ. The combination of an isophthalonitrile photocatalyst and sodium formate promotes diverse aryl radical coupling reactions from abundant but difficult to reduce aryl chloride substrates. Mechanistic studies reveal two parallel pathways for substrate reduction both enabled by a key terminal reductant byproduct, carbon dioxide radical anion.
