RANEY Ni proved to be an effective heterogeneous catalyst for switchable reductive amination of furfuryl alcohol to tetrahydrofurfurylamine and furfurylamine with NH3 by simply adding or not adding 1.0 MPa H2 into the reaction bulk. After further optimization of the reaction conditions, we finally obtained 94.0% yield of tetrahydrofurfurylamine and 78.8% yield of furfurylamine with high selectivity. By extensively studying the catalytic pathways and mechanism of catalyst deactivation with XRD and XPS characterization, we have confirmed that an excess amount of H2 in the reaction bulk leads to the deep hydrogenation of the furan ring while an insufficient amount of H2 leads to the formation of Ni3N and the deactivation of the catalyst.

Furfurylamine converted from biomass-based platform molecules furfural was proven a significant intermediate in the synthesis of different valuable compounds. The combination of Ruthenium with HZSM-5 was acted as an excellent selective and reusable catalyst for the reduction amination of furfural with environmentally friendly ammonia and hydrogen. Incorporation of Ru species into HZSM-5 had a significant enhancement to the acid sites of Ru/HZSM-5. The Ru/HZSM-5(46) catalyst with optimized acid sites and interaction of the Ru-O-Al bond displayed an excellent catalytic performance, producing 76 % yield of furfurylamine at only 15 min, and could be recycled five times without loss of performance. Synergistic effect between RuO2 and metallic Ru in the Ru/HZSM-5 catalyst facilitated the reduction amination of furfural.

The reductive amination of carboxylic acids is a very green, efficient and sustainable method for the production of (bio-based) amines. However, with current technology, this reaction requires two to three reaction steps. Here, we report the first (heterogeneous) catalytic system for the one-pot reductive amination of carboxylic acids to amines, with solely H2 and NH3 as the reactants. This reaction can be performed with relatively cheap ruthenium-tungsten bimetallic catalysts in the green and benign solvent cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME). Selectivities of up to 99% for the primary amine could be achieved at high conversions. Additionally, the catalyst is recyclable and tolerant for common impurities such as water and cations (e.g. sodium carboxylate).

The primary objective of many researchers in chemical synthesis is the development of recyclable and easily accessible catalysts. These catalysts should preferably be made from Earth-abundant metals and have the ability to be utilised in the synthesis of pharmaceutically important compounds. Amines are classified as privileged compounds, and are used extensively in the fine and bulk chemical industries, as well as in pharmaceutical and materials research. In many laboratories and in industry, transition metal catalysed reductive amination of carbonyl compounds is performed using predominantly ammonia and H2. However, these reactions usually require precious metal-based catalysts or RANEY nickel, and require harsh reaction conditions and yield low selectivity for the desired products. Herein, we describe a simple and environmentally friendly method for the preparation of thin graphene spheres that encapsulate uniform Ni/NiO nanoalloy catalysts (Ni/NiO?C) using nickel citrate as the precursor. The resulting catalysts are stable and reusable and were successfully used for the synthesis of primary, secondary, tertiary, and N-methylamines (more than 62 examples). The reaction couples easily accessible carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) with ammonia, amines, and H2 under very mild industrially viable and scalable conditions (80 °C and 1 MPa H2 pressure, 4 h), offering cost-effective access to numerous functionalized, structurally diverse linear and branched benzylic, heterocyclic, and aliphatic amines including drugs and steroid derivatives. We have also demonstrated the scale-up of the heterogeneous amination protocol to gram-scale synthesis. Furthermore, the catalyst can be immobilized on a magnetic stirring bar and be conveniently recycled up to five times without any significant loss of catalytic activity and selectivity for the product.

Reductive amination of furfuryl alcohol, furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) were carried out on various metal catalysts. Over Raney Ni catalyst, we obtained the highest furfurylamine yields of 81.8 % and 94.0 % from furfuryl alcohol in absence and presence of H2, respectively. While furfural was used as the substrate, 100 % yield of furfurylamine could be achieved over Raney Ni under rather moderate conditions. Although 5-HMF was completely converted over all catalysts used, the highest yield of 2,5-bisaminomethylfuran (60.7 %) was obtained over Raney Ni at 160 °C in 12 h. The DFT calculations on the adsorption behavior of NH3 and H2 on different metal surfaces showed that the difference of the adsorption energy between NH3 and H2 on Ni is lower than those of other metals, indicating that less metal active sites on Ni surface is occupied by NH3, which leaves more active sites for dehydrogenation/hydrogenation reactions and in the end promotes the reductive amination reactions.
Selective Synthesis of Furfurylamine by Reductive Amination of Furfural over Raney Cobalt

Effect of metal nature on reductive amination was investigated with biomass-based furfural as a typical substrate. Among the tested heterogeneous metal catalysts, cobalt proved to be the most effective metal for the synthesis of the corresponding primary amine. Under a relatively mild reaction condition, 98.9 % yield of furfurylamine was obtained over Raney Co and it can be reused more than eight times without a significant decrease in the catalytic performance. By extensively studying the catalytic pathways and reaction mechanism, it is found that the selectivity to primary amine and secondary amine was governed by the relative rate of hydrogenolysis and hydrogenation of the Schiff base intermediate. The superiority of Raney Co in furfurylamine synthesis can be ascribed to its high efficiency on hydrogenolysis of the Schiff base intermediate and its low performance in the hydrogenation of the Schiff base, carbonyl group and furan ring. Furthermore, ammonia greatly promoted the catalytic hydrogenolysis of the Schiff base intermediate over Raney Co without clear deactivation of the metal active sites.

Highly selective synthesis of primary amines over heterogeneous catalysts is still a challenge for the chemical industry. Ruthenium nanoparticles supported on Nb2O5 act as a highly selective and reusable heterogeneous catalyst for the low-temperature reductive amination of various carbonyl compounds that contain reduction-sensitive functional groups such as heterocycles and halogens with NH3 and H2 and prevent the formation of secondary amines and undesired hydrogenated byproducts. The selective catalysis of these materials is likely attributable to the weak electron-donating capability of Ru particles on the Nb2O5 surface. The combination of this catalyst and homogeneous Ru systems was used to synthesize 2,5-bis(aminomethyl)furan, a monomer for aramid production, from 5-(hydroxymethyl)furfural without a complex mixture of imine byproducts.
