PH-Mediated Selective Synthesis of N-Allylic Alkylation or N-Alkylation Amines with Allylic Alcohols via an Iridium Catalyst in Water

Amination of allylic alcohols is an effective approach in the facile synthesis of N-allylic alkylation or N-alkylation amines. Recently, a series of catalysts were devised to push forward this transformation. However, current synthetic methods are typical

Iron-catalysed tandem isomerisation/hydrosilylation reaction of allylic alcohols with amines

An iron(0)-catalysed cascade synthesis of N-alkylated anilines from allylic or homoallylic alcohols and primary and secondary anilines under hydrosilylation conditions has been developed. Notably, a simple Fe(cod)(CO)3 complex (cod = cycloocta-

Heterogeneous Ni catalysts for N-alkylation of amines with alcohols

Nickel nanoparticles loaded onto various supports (Ni/MOx) have been prepared and studied for the N-alkylation of amines with alcohols. Among the catalysts, Ni/θ-Al2O3 prepared by in situ H 2-reduction of NiO/θ-Al2O3 shows the highest activity, and it acts as reusable heterogeneous catalyst for the alkylation of anilines and aliphatic amines with various alcohols (benzyl and aliphatic alcohols) under additive free conditions. Primary amines are converted into secondary amines and secondary amines into tertiary amines. For the reaction of aniline with an aliphatic alcohol the catalyst shows higher turnover number (TON) than precious metal-based state-of-the-art catalysts. Mechanistic studies suggest that the reaction proceeds through a hydrogen-borrowing mechanism. The activity of Ni catalysts depends on the nature of support materials; acid-base bifunctional supports give higher activity than basic or acidic supports, indicating that acid-base sites on supports are necessary. The presence of basic (pyridine) or acidic (acetic acid) additive in the solution decreased the activity of Ni/θ-Al2O3, which suggests the cooperation of the acid-base site of θ-Al2O3. For a series of Ni/θ-Al2O3 catalysts with different particle size, the turnover frequency (TOF) per surface Ni increases with decreasing Ni mean particle size, indicating that low-coordinated Ni species and/or metal-support interface are active sites. From these results, we propose that the active site for this reaction is metal-support interface, where low-coordinated Ni0 atoms are adjacent to the acid-base sites of alumina.

Ruthenium-catalyzed reductive amination of allylic alcohols

Straighforward access to various saturated amines from allylic alcohols and isostructural mixture can now be achieved in the presence of arene ruthenium catalyst featuring phosphinesulfonate ligand and a hydrogen donor.
