Earth abundant metals are much less expensive, promising, valuable metals and could be served as catalysts for the borrowing hydrogen reaction, dehydrogenation and heterocycles synthesis, instead of noble metals. The uniformly dispersed zinc composites were designed, synthesized and carefully characterized by means of XPS, EDS, TEM and XRD. The resulting zinc composite showed good catalytic activity for the N-alkylation of amines with amines, ketones with alcohols in water under base-free conditions, while unsaturated carbonyl compounds could also be synthesized by tuning the reaction conditions. Importantly, it was the first time to realize the synthesis of 2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole derivatives by using this zinc composite under green conditions. Meanwhile, this zinc catalyst could be easily recovered and reused for at least five times.

Treatment of salicylaldiminato ligand L1H-L2H (L1H = 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-((quinolin-8-ylimino)methyl)phenol; L2H = 2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(((2-(diethylamino)ethyl)imino)methyl)phenol) with Ni(OAc)2·4H2O in refluxing ethanol afforded nickel complexes [(L1)Ni(OAc)] (1) and [(L2)Ni(OAc)] (2), respectively. Reaction of L3H (L3H = (2,4-di-tert-butyl-6-(((2-(pyridin-2-yl)ethyl)imino)methyl)phenol)) with Ni(OAc)2·4H2O in the presence of excess triethylanmine gave the dual ligands coordinated nickel complex [(L2)2Ni] (3). Complexes 1-3 were well characterized by high-resolution mass spectrometry, infrared spectroscopy, elemental analysis, and X-ray diffraction analysis. All the three Ni(II) complexes exhibited efficient activity and good selectivity in the acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols and amines to produce imines and diimines. The present protocol provides an atom-economical and sustainable route for the synthesis of various imine derivatives by employing an earth-abundant nickel salt and easily prepared salicylaldiminato ligands.

Catalytic dehydrogenation (CD)viavisible-light photoredox catalysis provides an efficient route for the synthesis of aromatic compounds. However, access toN-aryl amines, which are widely utilized synthetic moieties,viavisible-light-induced CD remains a significant challenge, because of the difficulty in controlling the reactivity of amines under photocatalytic conditions. Here, the visible-light-induced photocatalytic synthesis ofN-aryl amines was achieved by the CD of allylic amines. The unusual strategy using C6F5I as an hydrogen-atom acceptor enables the mild and controlled CD of amines bearing various functional groups and activated C-H bonds, suppressing side-reaction of the reactiveN-aryl amine products. Thorough mechanistic studies suggest the involvement of single-electron and hydrogen-atom transfers in a well-defined order to provide a synergistic effect in the control of the reactivity. Notably, the back-electron transfer process prevents the desired product from further reacting under oxidative conditions.

Commercially available [(PPh3)2NiCl2] was found to be an efficient catalyst for the mono-N-alkylation of (hetero)- A romatic amines, employing alcohols to deliver diverse secondary amines, including the drug intermediates chloropyramine (5b) and mepyramine (5c), in excellent yields (up to 97%) via the borrowing hydrogen strategy. This method shows a superior activity (TON up to 10000) with a broad substrate scope at a low catalyst loading of 1 mol % and a short reaction time. Further, this strategy is also successful in accessing various quinoline derivatives following the acceptorless dehydrogenation pathway.

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.

An amazing and stable carbonized octahedral frame material Cu-PC@OFM was synthesized and characterized through HRTEM, SEM, XRD, XPS, and Raman spectroscopy and nitrogen adsorption/desorption analysis. In particular, the carbon matrix carrier loaded with nano-copper not only maintains the original structure, but also the nano copper particles generatedin situsignificantly improve the catalytic performance and stability. It was disclosed that the copper-based catalyst material Cu-PC@OFM showed high catalytic activity in the borrowing hydrogen reaction and the synthesis of 1-benzyl-2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazole derivatives with high yields in water. This copper catalytic system provided a much greener and efficient catalyst for the synthesis of functionalized amines and 1-benzyl-2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles with good recovery performance in water, which was the first example for the Cu-PC@OFM material-catalyzed synthesis of 1-benzyl-2-aryl-1H-benzo[d]imidazoles. In addition, a plausible reaction mechanism was proposed through some condition control experiments, deuterium labeling experiments and separation of intermediates experiments.

Multi-amino groups and nitrogen donors compound was discovered as an organocatalyst for N-alkylation of alcohols with amines in the presence of Mo(CO)6. The Mo(CO)6/organocatalyst binary system has shown to be a highly active catalyst for the N-alkylation reaction between alcohols and amines with excellent tolerance of variable starting materials bearing different functional groups. Of particular note, this method possessing a superiority selectivity in the synthesis of N-alkylated amines or imines, which can be controlled by the reaction temperature. The cooperative catalysis mechanism in combination of Mo(CO)6 with organocatalyst was elucidated by control experiments.

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.
