Herein, a Grubbs-catalyzed route for the synthesis of nitriles via the aerobic oxidation of primary amines is reported. This reaction accommodates a variety of substrates, including simple primary amines, sterically hindered β,β-disubstituted amines, allylamine, benzylamines, and α-amino esters. Reaction compatibility with various functionalities is also noted, particularly with alkenes, alkynes, halogens, esters, silyl ethers, and free hydroxyl groups. The nitriles were also synthesized via the oxidation of imines generated from aldehydes and NH4OAc in situ. (Figure presented.).

The primary objective of many researchers in chemical synthesis is the development of recyclable and easily accessible catalysts. These catalysts should preferably be made from Earth-abundant metals and have the ability to be utilised in the synthesis of pharmaceutically important compounds. Amines are classified as privileged compounds, and are used extensively in the fine and bulk chemical industries, as well as in pharmaceutical and materials research. In many laboratories and in industry, transition metal catalysed reductive amination of carbonyl compounds is performed using predominantly ammonia and H2. However, these reactions usually require precious metal-based catalysts or RANEY nickel, and require harsh reaction conditions and yield low selectivity for the desired products. Herein, we describe a simple and environmentally friendly method for the preparation of thin graphene spheres that encapsulate uniform Ni/NiO nanoalloy catalysts (Ni/NiO?C) using nickel citrate as the precursor. The resulting catalysts are stable and reusable and were successfully used for the synthesis of primary, secondary, tertiary, and N-methylamines (more than 62 examples). The reaction couples easily accessible carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) with ammonia, amines, and H2 under very mild industrially viable and scalable conditions (80 °C and 1 MPa H2 pressure, 4 h), offering cost-effective access to numerous functionalized, structurally diverse linear and branched benzylic, heterocyclic, and aliphatic amines including drugs and steroid derivatives. We have also demonstrated the scale-up of the heterogeneous amination protocol to gram-scale synthesis. Furthermore, the catalyst can be immobilized on a magnetic stirring bar and be conveniently recycled up to five times without any significant loss of catalytic activity and selectivity for the product.

Cobalt-doped hybrid materials consisting of metal oxides and carbon derived from chitin were prepared, characterized and tested for industrially relevant nitrile hydrogenations. The optimal catalyst supported onto MgO showed, after pyrolysis at 700 °C, magnesium oxide nanocubes decorated with carbon-enveloped Co nanoparticles. This special structure allows for the selective hydrogenation of diverse and demanding nitriles to the corresponding primary amines under mild conditions (e.g. 70 °C, 20 bar H2). The advantage of this novel catalytic material is showcased for industrially important substrates, including adipodinitrile, picolinonitrile, and fatty acid nitriles. Notably, the developed system outperformed all other tested commercial catalysts, for example, Raney Nickel and even noble-metal-based systems in these transformations.

The synthesis of a new bidentate (NN)–Mn(I) complex is reported and its catalytic activity towards the reduction of ketones and nitriles is studied. On comparing the reactivity of various other Mn(I) complexes supported by benzimidazole ligand, it was observed that the Mn(I) complexes bearing 6-methylpyridine and benzimidazole fragments exhibited the highest catalytic activity towards monohydrosilylation of ketones and dihydrosilylation of nitriles. Using this protocol, a wide range of ketones were selectively reduced to the corresponding silyl ethers. In case of unsaturated ketones, the chemoselective reduction of carbonyl group over olefinic bonds was observed. Additionally, selective dihydrosilylation of several nitriles were also achieved using this complex. Mechanistic investigations with radical scavengers suggested the involvement of radical species during the catalytic reaction. Stoichiometric reaction of the Mn(I) complex with phenylsilane revealed the formation of a new Mn(I) complex.

Heterogeneously catalysed synthesis of primary amines by direct amination of alcohols with ammonia has long been an elusive goal. In contrast to reported Ru-based catalytic systems, we report that Ru-MgO/TiO2 acts as an effective heterogeneous catalyst for the direct amination of a variety of alcohols to primary amines at low temperatures of ca. 100 °C without the introduction of H2 gas. The present system could be applied to a variety of alcohols and provides an efficient synthetic route for 2,5-bis(aminomethyl)furan (BAMF), an attention-getting biomonomer. The high catalytic performance can be rationalized by the reactivity tuning of Ru-H species using MgO. Spectroscopic measurements suggest that MgO enhances the reactivity of hydride species by electron donation from MgO to Ru.

Here we present the first example of a mild and high-efficiency protocol enabling a process in water using 1 atm of H2 for the efficient and selective hydrogenation of nitriles, nitro compounds, ketones, and aldehydes to yield primary amines and alcohols with satisfactory yields of up to >99%. Several palladium-based nanoparticle catalysts were prepared from K2PdCl4 and ligands, and one of them was found to be the best and most suitable for the hydrogenation of CN, C-NO2, and CO bonds. In addition, the catalyst Pd-NPs can be easily recycled and reused without losing their activity and selectivity. A plausible mechanism for the hydrogenation of a CN bond was also proposed, representing the first example that possesses great potential for sustainable industrial purposes.

Herein, a hierarchical magnetic mesoporous microsphere was successfully prepared as a photocatalyst via a simple and reproducible route. Typically, Pd nanoparticles (NPs) were evenly dispersed on the surface of a magnetic Fe3O4 microsphere and then coated with a porous anatase-TiO2 shell to form Fe3O4-Pd@TiO2. The core-shell structure could efficiently suppress the conglomeration of Pd NPs during the calcination process at high temperatures as well as the shedding of Pd during the catalytic reaction process in the liquid phase. The as-prepared photocatalyst was characterized by TEM, XRD, XPS, VSM, and N2 adsorption-desorption. Fe3O4-Pd@TiO2 exhibits high photocatalytic activity for the selective reduction of aromatic cyanides to aromatic primary amines in an acidic aqueous solution. Moreover, this magnetic photocatalyst could be easily recovered from the reaction mixture by an external magnet and reused five times without significant reduction in its activity. The superior photocatalytic efficiency of the proposed photocatalyst may be attributed to its high charge separation efficiency and charge transfer rate, which are caused by the Schottky junction and large interface area. The results indicate that the strategy of coating the active noble metal sites with a mesoporous semiconductor shell has a significant potential for application in metal-semiconductor-based photocatalytic reactions.
