Recyclable Oxofluorovanadate-Catalyzed Formylation of Amines by Reductive Functionalization of CO2 with Hydrosilanes

An efficient method has been developed for the reductive amination of CO2 by using readily available and recyclable oxofluorovanadates as catalysts. Various amines are transformed into the desired N-formylated products in moderate to excellent yields at room temperature in the presence of phenylsilane. Mechanistic studies based on in situ infrared spectroscopy suggest a reaction pathway initiated through F?Si interactions. The activated phenylsilane allows for CO2 insertion to produce phenylsilyl formate, which undergoes attack by the amine to generate the target product.

Tetracoordinate borates as catalysts for reductive formylation of amines with carbon dioxide

We report sodium trihydroxyaryl borates as the first robust tetracoordinate organoboron catalysts for reductive functionalization of CO2. These catalysts, easily synthesized from condensing boronic acids with metal hydroxides, activate main group element-hydrogen (E-H) bonds efficiently. In contrast to BX3 type boranes, boronic acids and metal-BAr4 salts, under transition metal-free conditions, sodium trihydroxyaryl borates exhibit high reactivity of reductive N-formylation toward a variety of amines (106 examples), including those with functional groups such as ester, olefin, hydroxyl, cyano, nitro, halogen, MeS-, ether groups, etc. The over-performance to catalyze formylation of challenging pyridyl amines affords a promising alternative method to the use of traditional formylation reagents. Mechanistic investigation supports electrostatic interactions as the key for Si/B-H activation, enabling alkali metal borates as versatile catalysts for hydroborylation, hydrosilylation, and reductive formylation/methylation of CO2.

Mn(II)-Catalyzed N -Acylation of Amines

A practical protocol has been developed here for the Mn(II)-catalyzed N -acylation of amines with high yields using N, N -dimethylformamide and other amides as the carbonyl source. The protocol is simple, does not require any acid, base, ligand, or other additives, and encompasses a broad substrate scope for primary, secondary, and heterocyclic amines.

Mn-Catalyzed Selective Double and Mono-N-Formylation and N-Methylation of Amines by using CO2

Functionalization of amines by using CO2 is of fundamental importance considering the abundance of amines and CO2. In this context, the catalytic formylation and methylation of amines represent convenient and successful protocols for selective CO2 utilization as a C1 building block. This study represents the first example of selective catalytic double N-formylation of aryl amines by using a dinuclear Mn complex in the presence of phenylsilane. This robust system also allows for selective formylation and methylation of amines under a range of conditions.

N-formylation of amine using graphene oxide as a sole recyclable metal-free carbocatalyst

Abstract: Graphene oxide (GO), an inexpensive, environment-friendly, and metal-free carbocatalyst, used for the N-formylation of amines is developed. In this reaction, GO shows good activity, selectivity, and recyclability. This strategy has an array of advantages, such as being metal free, without additive, wide-scope protocol, scalable with a low catalyst loading of 3?wt%, use of readily available and recyclable carbocatalyst, and DMF as a readily available formyl source. Furthermore, this strategy provides an avenue for the convenient hydroformylation of various amines. Graphical abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.].
