Mild and efficient synthesis of secondary aromatic amines by one-pot stepwise reductive amination of arylaldehydes with nitroarenes promoted by reusable nickel nanoparticles

The one-pot stepwise reductive amination of arylaldehydes with nitroarenes is described, using reusable nickel nanoparticles (Ni-pol) as catalyst and NaBH4 as mild, inexpensive, and safe reducing agent. The proposed catalytic system holds several advantages such as the use of a non-precious and earth-abundant metal, the facile separation of the catalyst from the reaction mixture by centrifugation, excellent stability towards air and moisture, very mild reaction conditions, good recyclability, broad substrate scope with good to excellent yields, and easy scalability (up to 1.0 g). FESEM analyses indicate that the active species are cubic nanocrystals of Ni in the average cross section value of 35 nm with a quite narrow (25–45 nm) and monomodal distribution, which becomes bimodal with the recycling reactions but without agglomeration.

Selective C-C bonds formation, N-alkylation and benzo[d]imidazoles synthesis by a recyclable zinc composite

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.

Cooperative catalysis of molybdenum with organocatalysts for distribution of products between amines and imines

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.

Enhanced Hydride Donation Achieved Molybdenum Catalyzed Direct N-Alkylation of Anilines or Nitroarenes with Alcohols: From Computational Design to Experiment

An example of homogeneous Mo-catalyzed direct N-alkylation of anilines or nitroarenes with alcohols is presented. The DFT aimed design suggested the easily accessible bis-NHC-Mo(0) complex features a strong hydride-donating ability, achieving effective N-alkylation of anilines or challenging nitroarenes with alcohols. The enhanced hydride-donating strategy should be useful in designing highly active systems for borrowing hydrogen transformations.

Alcohol Amination Catalyzed by Copper Powder as a Self-Supported Catalyst

Catalytic alcohol amination is a sustainable reaction for N-alkyl amine synthesis. Homogeneous and supported copper catalysts have long been studied for this reaction and have given some impressive results. In this study, copper powder is found to behave as an active catalyst for alcohol amination, giving better catalytic performance than metal-oxide-supported nanocopper catalysts. Catalyst characterization suggests that the copper powder can be considered as a self-supported nanocopper catalyst (i.e., nanocopper supported on copper particles). These results might promote the study of unsupported transition metal powders in sustainable catalytic reactions.

Room temperature N-heterocyclic carbene manganese catalyzed selective N-alkylation of anilines with alcohols

The first example of room temperature non-noble metal homogeneous system catalyzed selective N-alkylation of anilines with alcohols by a bis-NHC manganese complex is presented. This system was applied to a large range of alcohols and anilines, including biologically relevant motifs and challenging methanol. Experimental and computational studies suggest an outer-sphere mechanism for this NHC-Mn system.

Discovery of novel quaternary ammonium derivatives of (3R)-quinuclidinyl carbamates as potent and long acting muscarinic antagonists

Novel quaternary ammonium derivatives of N,N-disubstituted (3R)-quinuclidinyl carbamates have been identified as potent M3 muscarinic antagonists with long duration of action in an in vivo model of bronchoconstriction. These compounds have also presented a high level of metabolic transformation (human liver microsomes). The synthesis, structure-activity relationships and biological evaluation of these compounds are reported.

Antifungal and cytotoxic activities of some N-substituted aniline derivatives bearing a hetaryl fragment

Diverse N-substituted anilines bearing hetaryl fragments were easily prepared from corresponding aldimines derived from commercially available aromatic aldehydes and anilines. 2-Furyl substituted anilines showed very good antifungal activities against dermatophytes, particularly against Trichophyton rubrum (MIC = 3.12-6.25 μg/mL). In addition, all active compounds, 45-47, 73, and 74, were tested for cytotoxic activities against breast (MCF-7), lung (H-460), and central nervous system (SF-268) human cancer cell lines with the NCI-anticancer-drug screen. The activity of amines described in this paper, along with the low toxicity of most of them, shows promise for the future development of non-toxic new antimycotic agents.
