This study describes the latest generation of a high-throughput screening system that is capable of screening thousands of organic reactions in a single day. This system combines a liquid handling robot with desorption electrospray ionization (DESI) mass spectrometry (MS) for a rapid reaction mixture preparation, accelerated synthesis, and automated MS analysis. A total of 3840 unique reductive amination reactions were screened to demonstrate the throughputs that are capable with the system. Products, byproducts, and intermediates were all monitored in full-scan mass spectra, generating a complete view of the reaction progress. Tandem mass spectrometry experiments were conducted to verify the identity of the products formed. The amine and electrophile reactivity trends represented in the data match what is expected from theory, indicating that the system accurately models the reaction performance. The DESI results correlated well with those generated using more traditional mass spectrometry techniques like liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry, validating the data generated by the system.

Tris[N,N-bis(trimethylsilyl)amide]lanthanum (LaNTMS) is an efficient and selective homogeneous catalyst for the deoxygenative reduction of tertiary and secondary amides with pinacolborane (HBpin) at mild temperatures (25-60 °C). The reaction, which yields amines and O(Bpin)2, tolerates nitro, halide, and amino functional groups well, and this amide reduction is completely selective, with the exclusion of both competing inter- and intramolecular alkene/alkyne hydroboration. Kinetic studies indicate that amide reduction obeys an unusual mixed-order rate law which is proposed to originate from saturation of the catalyst complex with HBpin. Kinetic and thermodynamic studies, isotopic labeling, and DFT calculations using energetic span analysis suggest the role of a [(Me3Si)2N]2La-OCHR(NR′2)[HBpin] active catalyst, and hydride transfer is proposed to be ligand-centered. These results add to the growing list of transformations that commercially available LaNTMS is competent to catalyze, further underscoring the value and versatility of lanthanide complexes in homogeneous catalysis.

An efficient method for the reductive amination of carbonyl derivatives with ω-amino fatty acids catalysed by an iron complex Fe(CO)4(IMes) [IMes=1,3-bis(2,4,6-trimethylphenyl)imidazol-2-ylidene] by means of hydrosilylation was developed. A variety of pyrrolidines, piperidines and azepanes were selectively synthesised in moderate-to-excellent yields (36 examples, 47–97 % isolated yield) with a good functional group tolerance.

The aminomethylation of N,N-dimethylaniline with N,N,N′,N′-tetraalkyldiaminomethanes in the medium of 90.0-99.6% acetic acid is accompanied by formation of the bis(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-methane. The amount of the latter grows with increased proportion of water in the system and also depends on the ratio substrate-reagent. Proceeding from kinetic data a mechanism of the process was suggested and confirmed by mathematical simulation. The essence of the mechanism consists in the concept that aminomethylation and aralkylation proceed via a common intermediate. The second among these reactions is catalysed with water.
