A new type of chiral super Br?nsted C-H acids, BINOL-derived phosphoryl bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl) methanes (BPTMs), were developed. As compared to widely utilized BINOL-derived chiral phosphoric acids (BPAs) and N-Triflyl phosphoramides (NTPAs), BPTMs displayed much higher Br?nsted acidity, resulting in dramatically improved activity and excellent enantioselectivity as demonstrated in catalytic asymmetric Mukaiyama-Mannich reaction, allylic amination, three-component coupling of allyltrimethylsilane with 9-fluorenylmethyl carbamate and aldehydes, and protonation of silyl enol ether. These new strong Br?nsted C-H acids have provided a platform for expanding the chemistry of asymmetric Br?nsted acid catalysis.

Herein, we disclose an NHC-catalyzed aerobic oxidation of unactivated aldimines for the synthesis of amides via umpolung of imines proceeding through an aza-Breslow intermediate. We have developed an eco-friendly method for the conversion of imines to amides by using molecular oxygen in air as the sole oxidant and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as a green solvent under mild reaction conditions. Broad substrate scope, high yields and gram scale syntheses expand the practicality of the developed method.

We report the synthesis of β-lactams from α-ketoacylsilanes and imines, which proceeds via a formal [2+2] photochemical cycloaddition with in situ generation of siloxyketene. This mild and operationally simple reaction proceeds in an atom-economic fashion with broad substrate scope, including aldimines, ketimines, hydrazones, and fused nitrogen heterocycles, affording a variety of important β-lactams with satisfactory diastereoselectivities in most cases. This reaction also features good functional-group tolerance, facile scalability and product diversification. Experimental and computational studies suggest that α-ketoacylsilanes can serve as photochemical precursors by engaging in a 1,3 silicon shift to the distal carbonyl group.

The traditional Staudinger/aza-Wittig reaction represents one of the most powerful tools for imine formation. However, for this multistep procedure, the sacrificial phosphine has to be used, resulting in difficulties in the purification process and waste disposal at the same time. Here, we report a redox-neutral azide-alcohol imination methodology enabled by a base-metal nickel PN3 pincer catalyst. The one-step, waste-free, and high atom-economical features highlight its advantages further. Moreover, mechanistic insight suggests a non-metal-ligand cooperation pathway based on the observation of an intermediate and density functional theory calculations.

The selective synthesis of imines from biomass-derived chemicals over heterogeneous non-noble metal catalysts is of great importance for organic transformation. Herein, non-noble heterogeneous nitrogen-doped carbon supported Ni catalysts (abbreviated as Ni/CN-MgO-T, whereTrepresents the pyrolysis temperature) have been facilely prepared from the simple pyrolysis of Ni precursors and biomass, and Ni/CN-MgO-600 with the smallest size of Ni nanoparticles demonstrated the highest catalytic activity. The reductive coupling of nitroarenes and carbonyl compounds could be performed under mild conditions (80 °C, and 10 bar H2), affording structurally-diverse imines with high to excellent yields (84.2-98.1%). Thanks to the mild reaction conditions, the developed method showed good tolerance to other functional groups such as nitriles, halogen and vinyl groups.

One-pot direct synthesis of imines via reductive amination of nitroarenes with aromatic aldehydes remains a great challenge due in part to its over-hydrogenation of imines to secondary amines. Herein, a novel Co3ZnC and ZnO supported on N-doped carbon nanosheet catalyst with the thickness of ca. 5.0 nm was fabricated through the direct pyrolysis of a Co/Zn bimetallic MOFs at 500 °C (named as Co3ZnC-ZnO/NC-500). Surprisingly, the developed Co3ZnC-ZnO/NC-500 catalyst delivers 99.9 % conversion of nitrobenzene and 98.5 % selectivity to N-benzylideneaniline in one-pot reductive amination of nitrobenzene with benzaldehyde. Various characterizations (including as SEM, XRD, TEM, AFM, XPS, Raman and N2 adsorption–desorption) have revealed that the generated small size of Co3ZnC alloy, abundant structural defects, larger specific surface area (105.5 m2·g?1) as well as more basic sites are responsible for the outstanding catalytic activity of Co3ZnC-ZnO/NC-500 catalyst for tandem reaction. Moreover, the Co3ZnC-ZnO/NC-500 catalyst exhibits high stability during the recycling experiments without the loss of its catalytic activity. Notably, the results of contrast experiments have demonstrated that the intentional introduction of ZnO in Co3ZnC-ZnO/NC-500 catalyst plays a key role in the selectivity to N-benzylideneaniline in the tandem reaction. This study provides a new guideline for designing tandem catalysts with high selectivity.

The direct catalytic oxidative coupling of amines is one of the attracting methods for the synthesis of a variety of pharmaceutical or industrial needed imines. Numerous earth-abundant manganese based salts, oxides, and complexes have been applied in this reaction. However, these compounds suffered from difficult separation, large catalyst loading, complicated reactivation or indeterminate activity. Considering the facts that metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with crystalline structure, precise composition, and enormous surface area have superior performance in heterogeneous catalytic reactions, herein, we introduced Mn into [Fe3(μ3-O)(CH3COO)6], one of the precursors for the preparation of stable MOFs, and got [Fe2Mn(μ3-O)(CH3COO)6] cluster. After ligand replacement with biphenyl-3,4’,5-tricarboxylic acid (BPTC), heterometallic cluster-based [Fe2Mn(μ3-O)(BPTC)2(DMF)2(H2O)] (1) was obtained. As expected, 1 is stable and able to catalyze the homo- or cross-coupling of amines effectively and selectively with 0.9 mol% catalyst loading at room temperature. Control experiments indicated that the catalytic activity of 1 mainly stems from Mn sites and that Fe synergistically contributes to the stability. Additionally, 1 is recyclable and can be reused easily for at least 8 runs without obvious decrease in catalytic ability. To our knowledge, 1 should be the first heterometallic cluster-based MOF with defined structure suitable for the synthesis of diverse imines from oxidative coupling of amines under mild conditions, which may shed light on the easy preparation of effective heterogeneous catalysts for organic synthesis.

Development of selective and efficient reusable catalytic systems for sustainable chemical production under benign conditions is attractive and received much attention. Herein, we report a rod-shaped octadecyl trimethylammonium functionalized Keggin-type polyoxometalate [PMO12O40] hybrids (OTA-POM) as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for selective oxidative dehydrogenative couplings under aerobic conditions without any additive or external base. The catalyst recovery and subsequent five successive recyclability studies of hybrid POM confirms the heterogeneous nature of present catalytic system.

Switchable imine and amine synthesis catalyzed by a tripodal ligand-supported well-defined cobalt complex is presented herein. A large variety of primary alcohols and amines were selectively converted to imines or amines in good to excellent yields. It is discovered that the base plays a crucial role on the selectivity. A catalytic amount of base leads to the imine formation, while an excess loading of base results in the amine product. This strategy on product selectivity also strongly depends on the organometallic catalysts in use. We expect that the present study could provide useful insights toward selective organic synthesis and catalyst design.

In this paper, we present fourCo-MOFsusing R-substituted isophthalic acid (R-H2BDC, R = H, OH and COOH) along with trigonaln-TBT (n= 3 or 4) as organic ligands. TheseCo-MOFsare formulated as {[Co(1,3-BDC)(4-TBT)2/3]·(H2O)(DMF)1.5}n(Co-MOF-1), {[Co(HO-BDC)(4-TBT)]·(EtOH)2(DMF)2}n(Co-MOF-2), {[Co(HO-BDC)(4-TBT)2/3]·(H2O)3(MeOH)3(DMA)}n(Co-MOF-3) and{[Co3(BTC)2(3-TBT)2(H2O)2]·(H2O)2(EtOH)5(DMA)1.5}n(Co-MOF-4), where H2BDC = isophthalic acid, OH-H2BDC = 5-hydroxyisophthalic acid and H3BTC = 1,3,5-tricarboxybenzene, 4-TBT = 1,3,5- tris(4-pyridyl)benzene and 3-TBT = 1,3,5-tris(3-pyridyl)benzene.Co-MOF-1,2and3are constructed from the dimeric Co2(COO)2unit and exhibit 3D frameworks. InCo-MOF-4, the dimeric Co2(COO)2unit and single nuclear CoIIcenter are connected by BTC3?and 3-TBT ligands into a 3D network. The catalytic experiments revealed that fourCo-MOFscan catalyze the oxidative coupling reaction of benzyl alcohols and aniline to imines with good to excellent conversions under solvent-free conditions and an air atmosphere.Co-MOF-4exhibited the best catalytic performance and the catalyst could be reused for at least five cycles without losing its structural integrity and catalytic activity.
