Methanol is a potential hydrogen source and C1 synthon, which finds interesting applications in both chemical synthesis and energy technologies. The effective utilization of this simple alcohol in organic synthesis is of central importance and attracts scientific interest. Herein, we report a clean and cost-competitive method with the use of methanol as both C1 synthon and H2 source for selective N-methylation of amines by employing relatively cheap RuCl3.xH2O as a ligand-free catalyst. This readily available catalyst tolerates various amines comprising electron-deficient and electron-donating groups and allows them to transform into corresponding N-methylated products in moderate to excellent yields. In addition, few marketed pharmaceutical agents (e. g., venlafaxine and imipramine) were also successfully synthesized via late-stage functionalization from readily available feedstock chemicals, highlighting synthetic value of this advanced N-methylation reaction. Using this platform, we also attempted tandem reactions with selected nitroarenes to convert them into corresponding N-methylated amines using MeOH under H2-free conditions including transfer hydrogenation of nitroarenes-to-anilines and prepared drug molecules (e. g., benzocaine and butamben) as well as key pharmaceutical intermediates. We further enable one-shot selective and green syntheses of 1-methylbenzimidazole using ortho-phenylenediamine (OPDA) and methanol as coupling partners.

Paragraph 0022, (2021/03/11)
The invention discloses a synthesis process of dialkyl dimethyl ammonium halide, which comprises the following steps: mixing primary alkyl halide R1X and long-chain alkyl dimethylamine R2(CH3)2N, heating to 130-150 DEG C in a closed container, keeping the temperature to react for 4-6 hours, cooling, and diluting with an ethanol water solution to obtain dialkyl dimethyl ammonium halide, wherein thereaction temperature is determined by the number of carbon atoms of R1 and R2, and the formula is 130 DEG C+2.5(CR1+CR216)DEG C. Primary alkyl halide and long-chain alkyl dimethylamine directly reactto generate dialkyl dimethyl ammonium halide, so that the use of flammable and combustible gaseous raw materials is avoided, and the production safety is improved, the production process flow and equipment are simple, the production cost is low, industrial popularization is facilitated, no acid or salt byproduct is generated, and the product is high in purity, free of three wastes and environmentally friendly.

Herein, we report commercially available carbon-supported-palladium (Pd/C)-catalyzed N-methylation of nitroarenes and amines using MeOH as both a C1 and a H2 source. This transformation proceeds with high atom-economy and in an environmentally friendly way via borrowing hydrogen mechanism. A total of >30 structurally diverse N-methylamines, including bioactive compounds, were selectively synthesized with isolated yields of up to 95%. Furthermore, selective N-methylation and deuteration of nimesulide, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug, were realized through the late-stage functionalization.

(Chemical Equation Presented) A triruthenium cluster, (μ3, η2,η3,η5-acenaphthylene)Ru 3(CO)7 (1) catalyzes the reaction of secondary amides with hydrosilanes, yielding a mixture of secondary amines, tertiary amines, and silyl enamines. Production of secondary amines with complete selectivity is achieved by the use of higher concentration of the catalyst (3 mol %) and the use of bifunctional hydrosilanes such as 1,1,3,3-tetramethyldisiloxane. Acidic workup of the reaction mixture affords the corresponding ammonium salts, which can be treated with a base, providing a facile method for isolation of secondary amines with high purity. In contrast, tertiary amines are formed with high selectivity by using lower concentration of the catalyst (1 mol %) and polymeric hydrosiloxanes (PMHS) as reducing agent. Reduction with PMHS encapsulates the ruthenium catalyst and organic byproducts to the insoluble silicone resin. The two reaction manifolds are applicable to various secondary amides and are practical in that the procedures provide the desired secondary or tertiary amine as a single product. The product contaminated with only minimal amounts of ruthenium and silicon residues. On the basis of the products and observed side products as well as NMR studies a mechanistic scenario for the reaction is also described.

Page/Page column 7, (2008/06/13)
Disclosed is a process for the preparation of primary, secondary and tertiary amines via a catalytic hydrogenation of unsubstituted, N-substituted, and N,N- disubstituted amides. The amide is led, together with an auxiliary amine, in vaporised form in a hydrogen containing gas flow over the catalyst. The process can be carried out at relatively low pressures, between 2 and 50 bars, using typical hydrogenation catalysts like CuCr-type catalysts. The amine is obtained with high yield and high selectivity. The process can be carried out in a continuous fixed bed reactor.
