Switching Selectivity in Copper-Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenation of Nitriles to Primary Amine-Boranes and Secondary Amines under Mild Conditions

A simple and efficient copper-catalyzed selective transfer hydrogenation of nitriles to primary amine-boranes and secondary amines with an oxazaborolidine-BH3 complex is reported. The selectivity control was achieved under mild conditions by switching the solvent and the copper catalysts. More than 30 primary amine-boranes and 40 secondary amines were synthesized via this strategy in high selectivity and yields of up to 95%. The strategy was applied to the synthesis of 15N labeled in 89% yield.

Surface modification boosts exciton extraction in confined layered structure for selective oxidation reaction

Extracting photogenerated species from bulk to surface is an essential process for gaining efficient semiconductor-based photocatalysis. However, compared with charged photogenerated carriers, neutral exciton exhibits negligible response to electric field. Accordingly, traditional strategies involving band-alignment construction for boosting directional transfer of charge carriers are impracticable for extracting bulk excitons. To this issue, we here propose that the extraction of bulk exciton could be effectively implemented by surface modification. By taking confined layered bismuth oxycarbonate (Bi2O2CO3) as an example, we highlight that the incorporation of iodine atoms on the surface could modify the micro-region electronic structure and hence lead to reduced energy of surface excitonic states. Benefiting from the energy gradient between bulk and surface excitonic states, iodine-modified Bi2O2CO3 possesses high-efficiency bulk exciton extraction, and hence exhibits promoted performance in triggering 1O2-mediated selective oxidation reaction. This work presents the positive role of surface modification in regulating excitonic processes of semiconductor-based photocatalysts. [Figure not available: see fulltext.].

Selective Synthesis of Secondary Amines from Nitriles by a User-Friendly Cobalt Catalyst

Selective hydrogenation/reductive amination of nitriles to secondary amines catalyzed by an inexpensive and user-friendly cobalt complex, (Xantphos)CoCl2, is reported. The use of (Xantphos)CoCl2 and ammonia borane (NH3?BH3) combination affords the selective reduction of nitriles to symmetrical secondary amines, whereas the employment of (Xantphos)CoCl2 and dimethylamine borane (Me2NH?BH3) along with external amines produce unsymmetrical secondary amines and tertiary amines. The general applicability of this methodology is demonstrated by the synthesis of 43 symmetrical and unsymmetrical secondary and tertiary amines bearing diverse functionalities. (Figure presented.).

Chemoselective hydrogenation of nitriles to secondary or tertiary amines catalyzed by aqueous-phase catalysts supported on hexagonal mesoporous silica

The first supported aqueous-phase catalyst for the hydrogenation of nitriles is revealed. The catalyst prepared from Pd(PhCN)2Cl2, water-soluble ligand 2,2′-biquinoline-4,4′-dicarboxylic acid dipotassium salt and mesoporous silica is a highly efficient catalyst for the selective formation of secondary or tertiary amines from aromatic or aliphatic nitriles. The catalytic system is stable and can be recycled and reused three times without loss of activity and selectivity. This environmentally friendly process is, in addition, an attractive alternative to many homogeneous and heterogeneous catalysts because of its easy preparation and the moderate operational conditions under which it is highly active.

Active and Recyclable Catalytic Synthesis of Indoles by Reductive Cyclization of 2-(2-Nitroaryl)acetonitriles in the Presence of Co-Rh Heterobimetallic Nanoparticles with Atmospheric Hydrogen under Mild Conditions

A cobalt-rhodium heterobimetallic nanoparticle-catalyzed reductive cyclization of 2-(2-nitroaryl)acetonitriles to indoles has been achieved. The tandem reaction proceeds without any additives under the mild conditions (1 atm H2 and 25 °C). This procedure could be scaled up to the gram scale. The catalytic system is significantly stable under these reaction conditions and could be reused more than ten times without loss of catalytic activity.

Herein, we describe a selective cobalt-catalyzed chemodivergent transfer hydrogenation of nitriles to synthesize primary, secondary, and tertiary amines. The solvent effect plays a key role for the selectivity control. The general applicability of this procedure was highlighted by the synthesis of more than 70 amine products bearing various functional groups in high chemoselectivity. Moreover, this mild system achieved >2000 TONs (turnover numbers) for the transfer hydrogenation of nitriles.

Unexpected selectivity in ruthenium-catalyzed hydrosilylation of primary amides: Synthesis of secondary amines

Selective ruthenium-catalyzed reductive coupling of primary amides under hydrosilylation conditions is achieved using an one pot procedure. Using 3 equiv. of phenylsilane and [RuCl2(mesitylene)]2 (1-2 mol%) as the catalyst at 100 °C under neat conditions, secondary symmetric amines were obtained in good yields and with high chemoselectivities.

Pt-Sn/γ-Al2O3-catalyzed highly efficient direct synthesis of secondary and tertiary amines and imines

Versatile syntheses of secondary and tertiary amines by highly efficient direct N-alkylation of primary and secondary amines with alcohols or by deaminative self-coupling of primary amines have been successfully realized by means of a heterogeneous bimetallic Pt-Sn/γ-Al2O3 catalyst (0.5 wt % Pt, Pt/Sn molar ratio=1:3) through a borrowing-hydrogen strategy. In the presence of oxygen, imines were also efficiently prepared from the tandem reactions of amines with alcohols or between two primary amines. The proposed mechanism reveals that an alcohol or amine substrate is initially dehydrogenated to an aldehyde/ketone or NH-imine with concomitant formation of a [PtSn] hydride. Condensation of the aldehyde/ketone species or deamination of the NH-imine intermediate with another molecule of amine forms an N-substituted imine which is then reduced to a new amine product by the in-situ generated [PtSn] hydride under a nitrogen atmosphere or remains unchanged as the final product under an oxygen atmosphere. The Pt-Sn/γ-Al2O 3 catalyst can be easily recycled without Pt metal leaching and has exhibited very high catalytic activity toward a wide range of amine and alcohol substrates, which suggests potential for application in the direct production of secondary and tertiary amines and N-substituted imines.
