Here, a photocatalytic deoxygenative amidation protocol using readily available amine-boranes and carboxylic acids is described. This approach features mild conditions, moderate-to-good yields, easy scale-up, and up to 62 examples of functionalized amides with diverse substituents. The synthetic robustness of this method was also demonstrated by its application in the late-stage functionalization of several pharmaceutical molecules.

Three new arene-ruthenium(II) complexes were prepared by treating [{RuCl(μ-Cl)(η6-arene)}2] (η6-arene = p-cymene) dimer with tri(2-furyl)phosphine (PFu3) and 1,3,5-triaza-7-phosphaadamantane (PTA), respectively to obtain [RuCl2(η6-arene)PFu3] [Ru]-1, [RuCl(η6-arene)(PFu3)(PTA)]BF4 [Ru]-2 and [RuCl(η6-arene)(PFu3)2]BF4 [Ru]-3. All the complexes were structurally identified using analytical and spectroscopic methods including single-crystal X-ray studies. The effectiveness of resulting complexes as potential homogeneous catalysts for selective hydration of different nitriles into corresponding amides in aqueous medium and air atmosphere was explored. There was a remarkable difference in catalytic activity of the catalysts depending on the nature and number of phosphorus-donor ligands and sites available for catalysis. Experimental studies performed using structural analogues of efficient catalyst concluded a structural-activity relationship for the higher catalytic activity of [Ru]-1, being able to convert huge variety of aromatic, heteroaromatic and aliphatic nitriles. The use of eco-friendly water as a solvent, open atmosphere and avoidance of any organic solvent during the catalytic reactions prove the reported process to be truly green and sustainable.

Four trinuclear ruthenium carbonyl clusters, (6-BrPyCHRO)2Ru3(CO)8 (R = 4-OCH3C6H4, 1a; R = 4-BrC6H4, 1b) and (2-OC6H4-HCN-C6H4R)2Ru3(CO)8 (R = 4-OCH3, 2a; R = 4-Br, 2b), were synthesized from the reactions of Ru3(CO)12 with the corresponding N,O-bidentate ligands (two pyridyl alcohols and two Schiff bases) respectively in a ratio of 1:2. Three new complexes 1b, 2a and 2b have been fully characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, NMR and X-ray crystallography. The catalytic activity of these ruthenium complexes for the aerobic oxidation of primary benzylic amines to amides and nitriles in the presence of t-BuOK was investigated, of which the Schiff base complex 2a was found to exhibit the highest activity.
