A novel and efficient copper-catalyzed amination of N-aryl imines is described. This one-pot, multicomponent reaction, in which imine acts as a directing group by chelating to the metal center, affords a potential route for the transformation of the commercial aryl amines, aldehydes, and azides into valuable benzimidazole structural units with wide substrate scope and diversity. The synthetic and mechanistic aspects are presented.

The combination of AgNO3 with NaH results in Ag nanoparticles that can selectively perform alcohol aminations under mild reaction conditions (110 C). NaH not only serves as a reducing agent for the Ag salt, but also activates the alcohol for dehydrogenation to the corresponding ketone/aldehyde. The stability of the particles can be improved by immobilizing them onto mixed Al2O3-Ga2O3 supports; the combination of Ga and Al provides materials with stronger Lewis acidic sites compared to pure alumina or gallium oxide supports. This leads to catalysts with enhanced activities, without the necessity of adding external Lewis acids. Detailed TEM characterization also reveals a close interaction between the Ag NPs and the gallium oxide phase. The obtained catalysts are recyclable and show activity for the alcohol amination using a variety of aliphatic and aromatic amines under mild conditions.
