Prochiral aminoketones are key intermediates for the synthesis of optically active amino alcohols, and glycerol is one of the main biomass-based alcohols available in industry. In this work, glycerol was catalytically activated and purposefully converted with amines to generate highly valuable prochiral aminoketones, as well as N-formamides and N-methyl amines, over CuNiAlOx catalyst. The catalyst structure can be anticipated as nano-Ni species on or in CuAlOx via the formation of nano- Cu?Ni alloy particles. This concept may present a novel and valuable methodology for glycerol utilization.

Oxidation-reduction reactions necessary to justify many of the products observed in Maillard model systems are usually attributed to molecular oxygen and the so-called reductons. The proline specific 1-(1′-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propanone and 1-(1′-pyrrolidinyl)-2-butanone are such compounds that require reduction steps to justify their formation. Experimental evidence using glucose separately labeled at 13C1, 13C2, 13C3, 13C4, 13C5, and 13C6 indicates that 1-(1′-pyrrolidinyl)-2-propanone is formed by two related pathways, initiated by a retro-aldol cleavage of proline Amadori compound at C3-C4, and 1-(1′-pyrrolidinyl)-2-butanone is formed by three pathways, one initiated by a retro-aldol reaction at C2-C3 of the 1-(prolino)-1-deoxy-4-hexosulose (an isomer of Amadori product formed by carbonyl migration) and two others by similar retro-aldol reactions at C4-C5 from both 3-deoxyglucosone and 1-(prolino)-1,4-dideoxy-2,3-hexodiulose. All of the proposed mechanisms require reduction steps for the formation of the target compounds. Model studies have indicated that reductions in Maillard systems can be effected by three pathways: through hydride transfer from formic acid; through cyclic dimerization of α-hydroxy carbonyl compounds followed by electrocyclic ring opening to produce oxidation/reduction products; and by disproportionation of enediols with α-dicarbonyl compounds through double proton transfer.
