We describe a simple and efficient procedure for nucleophilic borylation of imines in the absence of a photoredox catalyst. Visible light irradiation of an acetonitrile solution of an imine, an NHC-borane, and diphenyl disulfide (10 mol %) provides various stable α-amino NHC-boranes in good yields. The reaction proceeds via addition of a nucleophilic boryl radical to an imine, followed by hydrogen abstraction from thiophenol, which is generated from NHC-borane and diphenyl disulfide.

The application of nontoxic, earth-abundant transition metals in place of costly noble metals is a paramount goal in catalysis and is especially interesting if the air- and moisture-stable ligand scaffold is used. Herein, we report the synthesis of amines/imines directly from alcohol and amines via hydrogen autotransfer or acceptorless dehydrogenation catalyzed by well-defined phosphine-free Mn complexes. Both imines and amines can be obtained from the same set of alcohols and amines using the same catalyst, only by tuning the reaction conditions. The amount and nature of the base are found to be a highly important aspect for the observed selectivity. Both the primary and secondary amines have been employed as substrates for the N-alkylation reaction. As a highlight, we showed the chemoselective synthesis of resveratrol derivatives. Furthermore, the Mn-catalyzed dehydrogenative synthesis of structurally important 2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidines has also been demonstrated. Density functional theory calculations were also carried out to model the reaction path and to calculate the reaction profile.

Umpolung reactions of C=X bonds (X = O, N) are valuable ways of constructing new C–C bonds, which are sometimes difficult to be constructed using traditional synthetic pathways. Classical polarity inversion of C=X bonds (X = O, N) usually requires air or moisture-sensitive and strong reducing agents, which limit the feasibility of substrate scope. Herein we describe a photo-induced reductive cross-coupling reaction of aldehydes, ketones and imines with electron-deficient arenes (aromatic nitriles) using fac-Ir(ppy)3 as a photocatalyst and diisopropylethylamine (DIPEA) as a terminal reductant under visible light irradiation. Mild conditions and high yields mean that this new polarity inversion strategy can be used with aryl-substituted alcohols and amines. Spectroscopic studies and control experiments have demonstrated the oxidative quenching of Ir(ppy)3* by electron-deficient arenes involved in the key step for the C–C bond formation.
