- A highly active bifunctional iridium complex with an alcohol/alkoxide- tethered N-heterocyclic carbene for alkylation of amines with alcohols
-
A series of new iridium(III) complexes containing bidentate N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHC) functionalized with an alcohol or ether group (NHC-OR, R=H, Me) were prepared. The complexes catalyzed the alkylation of anilines with alcohols as latent electrophiles. In particular, biscationic IrIII complexes of the type [Cp*(NHC-OH)Ir(MeCN)]2+2[BF4 -] afforded higher-order amine products with very high efficiency; up to >99 % yield using a 1:1 ratio of reactants and 1-2.5 mol % of Ir, in short reaction times (2-16 h) and under base-free conditions. Quantitative yields were also obtained at 50 °C, although longer reaction times (48-60 h) were needed. A large variety of aromatic amines have been alkylated with primary and secondary alcohols. The reactivity of structurally related iridium(III) complexes was also compared to obtain insights into the mechanism and into the structure of possible catalytic intermediates. The IrIII complexes were stable towards oxygen and moisture, and were characterized by NMR, HRMS, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, and elemental analyses. Copyright

- Preparation, properties, and reductive alkylation of arylhydrazides
-
1 [-Acy]-2-arylhydrazines (1), readily obtained in high yield from the condensation of arylhydrazines and the appropriate liquid carboxylic acid (2), underwent reductive alkylation with the same or different liquid carboxylic acids (2) and NaBH4 to give 1-acyl-2-alkyl-2-arylhydrazines (3) in good to moderate yields. The carboxylic acid has both the role of supplying the entering alkyl group and of acting as solvent. Most likely, it also modifies the BH4- anion to an active reducing agent under those conditions. The 1H NMR criteria for identifying the location of acylation of hydrazines and E and Z isomers are given. The MS spectra of the prepared hydrazides were analyzed in order to identify relevant structural features leading to specific fragmentations.

- RUTHENIUM COMPLEX CATALYZED N-HETEROCYCLIZATION OF AMINOARENES TO QUINOLINE DERIVATIVES USING ALLYLIC ALCOHOLS AND ALIPHATIC ALDEHYDES.
-
Aminoarenes reacted with 2-propen-1-ol and 2-buten-1-ol at 180 degree C to give quinoline derivatives in fairly good yields in the presence of a catalytic amount of a ruthenium complex. Dichlorotris(triphenylphosphine)-ruthenium was the most effective catalyst. THe aminoarenes with electron-releasing groups favored the formation of the quinolines. The N-heterocyclization also proceeded when aliphatic aldehydes were used in place of the allylic alcohols. The employment of allylic alcohols gave, however, higher yields in several cases. The reaction involves the isomerization of the allylic alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes. The aldehydes reacted with aminoarenes to give Schiff-base dimers which were then cyclized in the presence of the ruthenium complex to the quinolines. As a key intermediate in the reaction, the ortho-metallated species is proposed.

- C–N Cross-coupling Reactions of Amines with Aryl Halides Using Amide-Based Pincer Nickel(II) Catalyst
-
Abstract: An approach to C–N cross-coupling reactions of aryl halides with amines in the presence of an amide-based pincer nickel(II) catalyst (2) is described. For 3?h reactions at 110?°C with 0.2?mol% catalyst, aryl bromides gave higher turnover numbers (TON) than the corresponding chlorides or iodides. Both primary and secondary amines could be used with the former giving higher TON. However, sterically hindered amines showed lower TON. In elucidating the mechanism of this nickel complex-catalyzed C–N cross coupling reaction it was found that the rate of reaction was unchanged in the presence of radical quenchers and a plausible Ni(I)–Ni(III) pathway is proposed. Graphic Abstract: [Figure not available: see fulltext.]Nickel pincer catalyst proved to be excellent catalyst for the C-N cross-coupling reaction with the high turnover number (TON) for 1° and 2° amines and different nonactivated aryl halides under optimum conditions.

- Lanthanide(III) ion as a luminescent and catalytically active reaction center of aniline condensation with butyraldehyde
-
A new type of chemiluminescence catalytic conversion in which the lanthanide(III) ion is a luminescent and highly efficient catalytically active center was found. Chemiluminescence (CL) is generated in the condensation reaction of aniline with butyraldehyde in DMF to form 3-ethyl-2-propylquinoline. The reaction is catalyzed by LnCl3?6H2O (Ln = Eu, Tb, and Ho). When EuCl3?6H2O and TbCl 3?6H2O salts are used as catalysts, the CL emitters are the Eu3+*and Tb3+*excited ions. In the case of HoCl3?6H2O, the emitter is 3-ethyl-2-propylquinoline in the triplet-excited state.

- [Pd(4-R3Si-IPr)(allyl)Cl], a Family of Silyl-Substituted Pd-NHC Complexes: Catalytic Systems for the Buchwald-Hartwig Amination
-
A family of Pd-IPr complexes (1Pd-6Pd) featuring electropositive and bulky R3Si substituents at the 4-position of the NHC ring was prepared and fully characterized. The catalytic performance of 1Pd (R3Si = SiMe3) and 3Pd (R3Si = Si(allyl)Me2) in the Buchwald-Hartwig amination was excellent, notably outperforming those of other previously reported catalytic systems by requiring shorter reaction times, lower catalyst loadings, and milder reaction conditions. Furthermore, a systematic evaluation of both the electronic and steric influences of the 4-R3Si-IPr ligand on the overall catalytic performance of 1Pd-6Pd revealed that electronic rather than steric factors play a dominant role.

- Oxidative intramolecular coupling of amidocuprates as a novel route to amines and hydrazines
-
Amidocuprates, derived from organocopper reagents and lithium amides upon exposure to oxygen at low temperature, provide new amine derivatives in satisfactory yields. Details of this flexible and simple methodology are given. The reaction mechanism is analyzed in terms of an oxidative intramolecular coupling of aminyl radicals with the ligands on Cu in the intermediate amidocuprate. This reaction is a mild and efficient method for N-alkylation, -vinylation, and -arylation by which a number of amines, not easily accessible by normal routes, can be synthesized. Once applied to lithium hydrazides, it also provides a new and straightforward entry to N-substituted hydrazines.

- Development of Quinoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones as Potent and Selective Ligands of the Cannabinoid Type 2 Receptor
-
The cannabinoid type 2 receptors (CB2Rs) play crucial roles in inflammatory diseases. There has been considerable interest in developing potent and selective ligands for CB2R. In this study, quinoline-2,4(1H,3H)-dione analogs have been designed, synthesized, and evaluated for their potencies and binding properties toward the cannabinoid type 1 receptor (CB1R) and CB2R. C5- or C8-substituted quinoline-2,4(1H,3H)-diones demonstrate CB2R agonist activity, while the C6- or C7-substituted analogs are antagonists of CB2R. In addition, oral administration of 21 dose-dependently alleviates the clinical symptoms of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis in a mouse model of multiple sclerosis and protects the central nervous system from immune damage. Furthermore, the interaction modes predicted by docking simulations and the 3D-QSAR model generated with CoMFA may offer guidance for further design and modification of CB2R modulators.

- Reductive Alkylation of Azides and Nitroarenes with Alcohols: A Selective Route to Mono- And Dialkylated Amines
-
Herein, we demonstrated an efficient protocol for reductive alkylation of azides/nitro compounds via a borrowing hydrogen (BH) method. By following this protocol, selective mono- and dialkylated amines were obtained under mild and solvent-free conditions. A series of control experiments and deuterium-labeling experiments were performed to understand this catalytic process. Mechanistic studies suggested that the Ir(III)-H was the active intermediate in this reaction. KIE study revealed that the breaking of the C-H bond of alcohol might be the rate-limiting step. Notably, this solvent-free strategy disclosed a high TON of around 5600. Based on kinetic studies and control experiments, a metal-ligand cooperative mechanism was proposed.

- A highly efficient Co-based catalyst fabricated by coordination-assisted impregnation strategy towards tandem catalytic functionalization of nitroarenes with various alcohols
-
A well-defined hexamethylenetetramine (abbreviated as HMTA) based two-dimensional (2D) MOFs metalloligand (termed Zn-HMTA), with free uncoordinated tertiary amine groups, has been synthesized via solution diffusion method for the first time. The crystal structure of 2D Zn-HMTA metalloligand was determined by the single crystal X-ray diffraction (SCXRD). The SCXRD and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analyses have revealed that the 2D Zn-HMTA metalloligand is rich in- free tertiary amine groups, which are of strong coordination ability to transition metal ions (e.g. Ni2+, Co2+, Zn2+, Cu2+). As a result, a 2D bimetallic Co@Zn-HMTA MOFs was synthesized via coordination-assisted impregnation (CAI) strategy attributed to the unique feature of strong coordinated ability of free tertiary amine groups. Furthermore, a series of self-supported Co-ZnO-CN nanocatalysts were afforded upon the as-synthesized Co@Zn-HMTA MOFs served as a self-sacrificial template for pyrolysis at different temperatures. The optimized catalyst (termed as Co-ZnO@CN-CAI) demonstrated the excellent catalytic performance for hydrogenation-alkylation tandem reaction in comparison with the classic ZnO@CN composite (derived from Zn-HMTA MOFs) supported metallic Co catalyst (Co-ZnO@CN-IWI) prepared by incipient wetness impregnation method. Moreover, the kinetic study was also performed to confirm that the alkylation is the rate-determining step in the hydrogenation-alkylation tandem reaction. The origin of enhanced catalytic performance of Co-ZnO@CN-CAI and the role of Co@Zn-HMTA MOFs precursor have been explored by way of various characterizations, e.g. HADDF-STEM-EDS, SEM-EDS, 13C MAS NMR, XRD, Raman and XPS, etc. It is anticipated that the prepared low-cost and easily prepared 2D Zn-HMTA metalloligand will become a general template for synthesis of highly self-supported catalysts with coordination-assisted impregnation strategy (CAI) for various catalytic reactions.

A series of air-stable N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) Ir(III) complexes (Ir1-6), bearing various combinations of chlorine, pyridine and NHC ligands, were assayed for the N-alkylation of amines with alcohols. It was found that Ir3, with two monodentate 1,3-bis-methyl-imidazolylidene (IMe) ligands, emerged as the most active complex. A large variety of amines and primary alcohols were efficiently converted into mono-N-alkylated amines in 53–96% yields. As a special highlight, for the challenging MeOH, selective N-monomethylation could be achieved using KOH as a base under an air atmosphere. Moreover, this catalytic system was successfully applied to the gram-scale synthesis of some valuable compounds.

Metal hydride complexes are key intermediates forN-alkylation of amines with alcohols by the borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen autotransfer (BH/HA) strategy. Reactivity tuning of metal hydride complexes could adjust the dehydrogenation of alcohols and the hydrogenation of imines. Herein we report ruthenium(ii) complexes with hetero-bidentate N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-phosphine ligands, which realize smart pathway selection in theN-alkylated reactionviareactivity tuning of [Ru-H] species by hetero-bidentate ligands. In particular, complex6cbwith a phenyl wingtip group and BArF?counter anion, is shown to be one of the most efficient pre-catalysts for this transformation (temperature is as low as 70 °C, neat conditions and catalyst loading is as low as 0.25 mol%). A large variety of (hetero)aromatic amines and primary alcohols were efficiently converted into mono-N-alkylated amines in good to excellent isolated yields. Notably, aliphatic amines, challenging methanol and diamines could also be transformed into the desired products. Detailed control experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations provide insights to understand the mechanism and the smart pathway selectionvia[Ru-H] species in this process.

- Catalyst-free photoinduced selective oxidative C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond cleavage in arylamines
-
Due to the directional nature of sp3-hybridized orbitals and the absence of π-orbitals, the oxidative cleavage of the kinetically and thermodynamically stable C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond is extremely difficult and remains scarcely explored. In this work, under the double argument of quantum mechanics (QM) computations and meticulous experiments on our well-designed C-C single bond cleavage mechanism, we discovered a means of photoinduced selective oxidative C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond cleavage in arylamines, easily achieved by simple visible light irradiation using O2as a benign oxidant under very mild conditions. The utility of our methodology was demonstrated by the C(sp3)-C(sp3) bond cleavage in morpholine/piperazine arylamines with excellent functional group tolerance. Importantly, our methodology is noteworthy, not only in that it does not require any catalysts, but also in that it provides valuable possibilities for the scalable functionalization of clinical drugs and natural products.

- Mediator-Enabled Electrocatalysis with Ligandless Copper for Anaerobic Chan-Lam Coupling Reactions
-
Simple copper salts serve as catalysts to effect C-X bond-forming reactions in some of the most utilized transformations in synthesis, including the oxidative coupling of aryl boronic acids and amines. However, these Chan-Lam coupling reactions have historically relied on chemical oxidants that limit their applicability beyond small-scale synthesis. Despite the success of replacing strong chemical oxidants with electrochemistry for a variety of metal-catalyzed processes, electrooxidative reactions with ligandless copper catalysts are plagued by slow electron-transfer kinetics, irreversible copper plating, and competitive substrate oxidation. Herein, we report the implementation of substoichiometric quantities of redox mediators to address limitations to Cu-catalyzed electrosynthesis. Mechanistic studies reveal that mediators serve multiple roles by (i) rapidly oxidizing low-valent Cu intermediates, (ii) stripping Cu metal from the cathode to regenerate the catalyst and reveal the active Pt surface for proton reduction, and (iii) providing anodic overcharge protection to prevent substrate oxidation. This strategy is applied to Chan-Lam coupling of aryl-, heteroaryl-, and alkylamines with arylboronic acids in the absence of chemical oxidants. Couplings under these electrochemical conditions occur with higher yields and shorter reaction times than conventional reactions in air and provide complementary substrate reactivity.

- Chitosan nanoparticles functionalized poly-2-hydroxyaniline supported CuO nanoparticles: An efficient heterogeneous and recyclable nanocatalyst for N-arylation of amines with phenylboronic acid at ambient temperature
-
The present study aims to prepare an effective and eco-friendly nanocatalyst for the Chan–Lam coupling reaction of phenylboronic acid and amine in aerobic conditions. For this purpose, chitosan was extracted from shrimp shells waste by demineralization, deproteinization, and deacetylation processes and then converted to chitosan nanoparticles (CSN) by the ionic gelation with tripolyphosphate anions. Afterward, poly-2-hydroxyaniline (P2-HA) was grafted to chitosan nanoparticles (NPs) to employ as the support for CuO NPs. Characterization of the nanocatalyst was done using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), mapping, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The CuO NPs were identified in the spherical shape with an average size of 17 nm. The prepared nanocatalyst exhibited excellent catalytic performance with a high turnover number (TON) and turnover frequency (TOF) for the Chan–Lam coupling reaction of phenyl boronic acid and amines with different electronic properties. The prepared catalyst could be readily recovered and reused for at least five runs without any noticeable change in structure and catalytic performance. Chitosan (CS) was prepared via demineralization, deproteinization, and deacetylation of shrimp shell and chitosan nanoparticles (CSN) were prepared via ionic gelation process. Polymerization of 2-HA on the CSN surface was done to increase functional groups and create active sites for CuO NPs attachments. CuO NPs-P2-HA-CSN nanocomposite has been shown high efficiently for the Chan–Lam coupling reaction.

Herein, the synthesis of a nano-catalytic system comprising magnetic nanoparticles as the core and edible natural ligands bearing functional groups as supports for cobalt species is described. Subsequent to its characterization, the efficiency of the catalyst was investigated for C-N cross-coupling reactions using assorted derivatives of amines and aryl halides. This novel and easily accessible Pd- and Cu-free catalyst exhibited good catalytic activity in these reactions using γ-valerolactone (GVL) at room temperature; good recyclability bodes well for the future application of this strategy. The introduced catalytic system is attractive in view of the excellent efficiency in an array of coupling reactions and its versatility is illustrated in the synthesis of abemaciclib and fedratinib, which are FDA-approved new and significant anti-cancer medicinal compounds that are prepared under green reaction conditions.

- Nickel-Catalyzed Amination of Aryl Chlorides with Amides
-
A nickel-catalyzed amination of aryl chlorides with diverse amides via C-N bond cleavage has been realized under mild conditions. A broad substrate scope with excellent functional group tolerance at a low catalyst loading makes the protocol powerful for synthesizing various aromatic amines. The aryl chlorides could selectively couple to the amino fragments rather than the carbonyl moieties of amides. Our protocol complements the conventional amination of aryl chlorides and expands the usage of inactive amides.

- Efficient photocatalytic one-pot hydrogenation and N-alkylation of nitrobenzenes/benzonitriles with alcohols over Pd/MOFs: Effect of the crystal morphology & “quasi-MOF” structure
-
One-pot multi-step reactions over visible-light induced catalysis feature the sustainable green process. Here, ligand structure change and 2-MI coordinated modulation were adapted to adjust the crystal size, morphology and crystalline structure of Fe-MOFs; double solvent impregnation was employed for the Pd loading; “quasi-MOF” materials with retained morphology were formed with calcination under N2. Above modified materials were employed as multifunctional photocatalysts for highly efficient one-pot hydrogenation and N-alkylation of nitrobenzenes or benzonitriles with alcohols after in situ Pd photoreduction. Photocatalytic performance was evidently affected by the Fe-MOFs crystal size, morphology, crystalline structure alteration and “quasi-MOF” construction. One-pot hydrogenation and N-alkylation of benzonitriles with alcohols was achieved with excellent catalytic performance firstly in heteroegeneous catalysis. Reaction mechanism was proposed with the assistance of in situ DRIFTS.

- Iridium complexes with ligands of 1,8-Naphthyridine-2-carboxylic acid derivatives-preparation and catalysis
-
Complexation of 1,8-naphthyridine(Np)-2-carboxylic derivatives L1-L3 [L1 = Np-2-COOH, L2 = Np-2-CONH2, L3 = Np-2-CONHCH2Py] with [Ir(COD)(μ-OMe)]2 yielded the corresponding complexes [Ir(COD)(Ln)] (1~3, n = 1~3, respectively). The potential tridentate L3 behaves as a bidentate donor in the complex 3. Treatment of L1 with [Ir(COD)Cl]2 under nitrogen atmosphere gave a Ir(III) hydride complex [Ir(COD)(L1)HCl] (4). However, carrying out the reaction in the presence of oxygen rendered a Ir(III) dichloride species [Ir(COD)(L1)Cl2] (5). All these complexes were characterized by spectroscopic analyses and X-ray single crystal determination. Catalytic activity of iridium complexes in amination of amines with alcohols was screened. It appears that iridium amido complexes 2 and 3 show excellent catalytic activity on amination of anilines with alcohols in the presence of Cs2CO3 at 120 °C.

Herein, we report pyridine and other similar azaaromatics as efficient biomimetic hydrogen shuttles for a transition-metal-free direct N-alkylation of aryl and heteroaryl amines using a variety of benzylic and straight chain alcohols. Mechanistic studies including deuterium labeling and the isolation of dihydro-intermediates of the benzannulated pyridine confirmed the role of pyridine and a borrowing hydrogen process operating in these reactions. In addition, we have extended this methodology for the development of dehydrogenative synthesis of quinolines and indoles, as well as the transfer hydrogenation of ketones. This journal is

- Ruthenium(II) Complexes of Heteroditopic N-Heterocyclic Carbene Ligands: Efficient Catalysts for C-N Bond Formation via a Hydrogen-Borrowing Strategy under Solvent-Free Conditions
-
Both imidazol-2-ylidene (ImNHC) and 1,2,3-triazol-5-ylidene (tzNHC) have evolved to be elite groups of N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) ligands for homogeneous catalysis. To develop efficient ruthenium(II)-based catalysts incorporating these ligands for C-N bond-forming reactions via hydrogen-borrowing methodology, we utilized chelating ligands integrated with ImNHC and mesoionic tzNHC donors connected via a CH2 spacer with a diverse triazole backbone. The synthesized ruthenium(II) complexes 3 are found to be highly efficient for C-N bond formation across a wide range of primary amine and alcohol substrates under solvent-free conditions, and among all of the complexes studied here, catalyst 3a with a mesityl substituent displayed maximum activity. To our delight, catalyst 3a is also effective for the selective mono-N-methylation of various anilines utilizing methanol as a coupling partner, known to be relatively more difficult than other alcohols. Furthermore, complex 3a also delivers various substituted quinolines successfully via the reaction of 2-aminobenzyl alcohol with several secondary alcohols. Importantly, catalyst 3a exhibited the highest activity among the reported ruthenium(II) complexes for both the N-benzylation of aniline [achieving a turnover number (TON) of 50000] and the realization of quinoline 8a by reacting 2-aminobenzyl alcohol with 2-phenylethanol (attaining a TON of 30000).

- Zinc-Catalyzed N-Alkylation of Aromatic Amines with Alcohols: A Ligand-Free Approach

An efficient zinc-catalyzed N-alkylation reaction of aromatic amines was achieved using aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic alcohols as the alkylating reagent. A variety of aniline derivatives, including heteroaromatic amines, underwent the N-alkylation reaction and furnished the corresponding monoalkylated products in good to excellent yields. The application of the reaction is also further demonstrated by the synthesis of a 2-phenylquinoline derivative from acetophenone and 2-aminobenzyl alcohol. Deuterium labeling experiments show that the reaction proceeds via a borrowing hydrogen process. (Figure presented.).

- Thiazoline-Iridium (III) Complexes and Immobilized Nanomaterials as Selective Catalysts in N-Alkylation of Amines with Alcohols
-
In this research, a new series of thiazoline-iridium (III) complexes (4–7) derived from cysteine were prepared and fully characterized by conventional methods. The molecular structure of complex 5 was also determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. These complexes were evaluated as catalysts for hydrogen-borrowing reactions of amines with alcohols. In particular, complex 5 showed the best activity as catalyst. Various amines have been alkylated with alcohols affording moderate to good yield (33–99%). Moreover, the immobilized nanomaterials (M1,2) were fabricated by sonication process from the best catalyst 5 with the multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and graphene oxide (GO), respectively, and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, and inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The M1,2 nanomaterials were also tested as catalysts in model catalytic reaction for N-alkylation. The M1 nanomaterial showed significantly higher activity than the M2 nanomaterial. The M1 catalyst was recovered by filtration and reused for four catalytic cycles with high conversion (99%, 97%, 96%, and 86%).

- Mono/Dual Amination of Phenols with Amines in Water
-
We herein describe a practical direct amination of phenols through a palladium-catalyzed hydrogen-transfer-mediated activation method to synthesize the secondary and tertiary amines. In this conversion, environmentally friendly water and inexpensive ammonium formate were used as solvent and reductant, respectively. A range of amines, including aliphatic amines, aniline, secondary amines, and diamines, could be coupled effectively by this method to achieve mono/dual amination and cyclization of phenols. This study not only provides a green and mild strategy for the synthesis of secondary and tertiary naphthylamines but also expands the synthesis of chloroquine in organic chemistry.

This method features the in situ activation of both boronic acid and hydroxyl groups of the substrate to enhance benzyne generation at 60 °C. Such mild conditions facilitate the generation of functionalized benzynes that immediately react with diverse arynophiles to produce multisubstituted fused benzenes.

- Cooperative Mn(i)-complex catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of ketones and imines
-
The synthesis and reactivity of Mn(i) complexes bearing bifunctional ligands comprising both the amine N-H and benzimidazole fragments are reported. Among the various ligands, the N-((1H-benzimidazol-2-yl)methyl)aniline ligand containing Mn(i) complex presented higher reactivity in the transfer hydrogenation (TH) of ketones in 2-propanol. Experimentally, it was established that both the benzimidazole and amine N-H proton played a vital role in the enhancement of the catalytic activity. Utilizing this system a wide range of aldehydes and ketones were reduced efficiently. Notably, the TH of several imines, as well as chemoselective reduction of unsaturated ketones, was achieved in the presence of this catalyst. DFT calculations were carried out to understand the plausible reaction mechanism which disclosed that the transfer hydrogenation reaction followed a concerted outer-sphere mechanism.

- Plasma-Made (Ni0.5Cu0.5)Fe2O4 Nanoparticles for Alcohol Amination under Microwave Heating
-
Amine N-alkylation is a process involved in the production of a wide range of chemicals. Here we describe the synthesis of well-defined (Ni0.5Cu0.5)Fe2O4 magnetic nanoparticles by plasma induction, and their successful application to amine N-alkylation using alcohols as coupling agents through a borrowing hydrogen pathway. Plasma induction allows precise morphology and size control over nanoparticle synthesis, while allowing the one-pot production of decagram quantities of material. Up to date, such nanoparticles have never been applied for organic reactions. By coupling high-end characterization techniques with catalytic optimization, we showed that small Cu(0) satellite nanoparticles played an essential role in alcohol oxidation, whereas both Ni and Cu were required for the last step of the reaction. Using elemental mapping, we demonstrated that catalyst deactivation occurred through a leaching/re-deposition mechanism of Cu and Ni. The reactions were conducted under microwave conditions, which exerted a positive effect on catalytic activity. Finally, the catalyst was active at low metal loadings (2 mol%) even on the gram-scale, and affording unprecedented TON for this reaction catalyzed by Ni/Cu bimetallic systems (19).

- CoII immobilized on an aminated magnetic metal-organic framework catalyzed C-N and C-S bond forming reactions: A journey for the mild and efficient synthesis of arylamines and arylsulfides
-
In this work, we report a simple and versatile method for the modification of a metal-organic framework (NH2-MIL53(Al)) in a step-wise manner. To characterize the synthesized nanostructured catalyst, a variety of spectroscopic and microscopic techniques including FT-IR, XRD, BET, TEM, FE-SEM, EDX, EDX-mapping, TGA, XPS, VSM, ICP-OES and CHN have been employed. Fe3O4@AMCA-MIL53(Al)-NH2-CoII NPs, which benefit from small nanocrystalline size (10-30 nm, according to the XRD and TEM data) in combination with the coexistence of magnetic nanoparticles, a metal-organic framework, and cobalt species, were found to be an excellent environment catalyst to promote the C-N and C-S cross coupling reactions. A wide range of functional substrates including electron-withdrawing and electron-donating aryl halides underwent the coupling reaction with aromatic/heteroaromatic/benzylic and aliphatic amines and sulfides. The results demonstrated that the yields of the target products were good to excellent and the catalyst can be recycled for at least seven recycling runs without a discernible decrease in its catalytic activity. Furthermore, the heterogeneity studies (such as hot filtration and poisoning tests) efficiently confirmed that the as-synthesized nanostructured catalyst is heterogeneous and completely stable under the reaction conditions. We hope that our study inspires more interest in designing novel catalysts based on using low-cost metal ions (such as cobalt) in the field of cross coupling reactions.

- Alcohol Amination Catalyzed by Copper Powder as a Self-Supported Catalyst
-
Catalytic alcohol amination is a sustainable reaction for N-alkyl amine synthesis. Homogeneous and supported copper catalysts have long been studied for this reaction and have given some impressive results. In this study, copper powder is found to behave as an active catalyst for alcohol amination, giving better catalytic performance than metal-oxide-supported nanocopper catalysts. Catalyst characterization suggests that the copper powder can be considered as a self-supported nanocopper catalyst (i.e., nanocopper supported on copper particles). These results might promote the study of unsupported transition metal powders in sustainable catalytic reactions.

- Switching the N-Alkylation of Arylamines with Benzyl Alcohols to Imine Formation Enables the One-Pot Synthesis of Enantioenriched α-N-Alkylaminophosphonates

The selective N-alkylation of anilines with benzylic alcohols can be switched in favor of the dehydrogenative condensation process using the nitrile-ligated Kn?lker's complex by conducting the reaction either in a closed system under inert conditions, or in an open system in air. The selective formation of imines, containing reactive C=N bonds, provides an opportunity towards further functionalization. Indeed, a one-pot three-component condensation of alcohols, amines and phosphites, promoted by an iron-based Kn?lker-type complex in combination with a chiral BINOL-based phosphoric acid, provides access to enantioenriched α-N-alkylaminophosphonates.

- N–Alkylation of Amines Catalyzed by a Ruthenium–Pincer Complex in the Presence of in situ Generated Sodium Alkoxide
-
We report the use of ruthenium–NNN-pincer complexes of the type (R2NNN)RuCl2(PPh3) (R = tBu, iPr, Cy and Ph) for the catalytic N-alkylation of primary amines under solvent-free conditions. For the first time, the base that is required to promote these reactions is generated in situ from the alcohol by the use of sodium. The resulting sodium alkoxide regenerates the alcohol substrate while acting as the water scavenger thus mitigating the need of an additional base. Among the catalysts screened, (tBu2NNN)RuCl2(PPh3) (0.02 mol-%) gives very high turnovers and good yields at 140 °C. The (tBu2NNN)RuCl2(PPh3) catalyzed N-alkylation tolerates a variety of amine and alcohol substrates. While excellent turnover (29000) was obtained for the (tBu2NNN)RuCl2(PPh3) (0.002 mol-%) catalyzed alkylation of aniline with cyclohexyl methanol, the turnovers obtained in the corresponding catalytic methylation of p-anisidine was also very high (12000). The (tBu2NNN)RuCl2(PPh3) catalyzed reactions have also been accomplished under open-vessel conditions resulting in a net dehydrogenative coupling reaction. This protocol has been used to transform benzene-1,2-diamines to benzimidazoles with high productivity (12000 turnovers). DFT studies indicate that while β-hydride elimination is rate-determining (RDTS: 24.31 kcal/mol) for the alcohol dehydrogenation segment which is endothermic, insertion of the imine is rate-determining (RDTS: 11.26 kcal/mol) for its hydrogenation that is exothermic.

A formal deoxygenative hydrogenation of amides to amines with RuCl2(NHC)(PNHP) (NHC = 1,3-dimethylimizadol-2-ylidene, PNHP = bis(2-diphenylphosphinoethyl)amine) is described.

This process consists of (1) deaminative hydrogenation of secondary amides to generate primary amines and alcohols, (2) dehydrogenative coupling of the transient amines with alcohols to generate imines, and (3) hydrogenation of imines to give the formally deoxygenated secondary amine products.

Abstract: The catalytic properties of samples of amorphous mesoporous aluminosilicate ASM with different Si/Al molar ratios (40, 80, 160) were studied in the synthesis of practically important pyridines (by the interaction of С2–С5 alcohols with formaldehyde and ammonia, cyclocondensation of acetaldehyde and propionic aldehyde with ammonia), dialkylquinolines and alkyltetrahydroquinolines (by reaction of aniline with C3, C4 aldehydes) and alkyldihydroquinolines (by interaction of aniline with ketones, acetone and acetophenone). It is found that mesoporous aluminosilicate ASM sample with a molar ratio of Si/Al = 40, which has the highest acidity among the studied samples, exhibits the highest activity and selectivity in these reactions.

These six complexes were tested as catalysts for mono-N-alkylation of amines with trialkyl amines, and complex 1 exhibited highest activity. The coupling reactions proceed under air condition, with 1 mol % catalyst loading without extra base in methanol at 120 °C and can be further accelerated by adding NR3·HCl.

A rare reductive coupling of nitro compounds with organohalides has been realized. The reaction is initiated by a partial reduction of the nitro group to a nitrenoid intermediate. Therefore, not only aromatic but also aliphatic nitro compounds are efficiently transformed into monoalkylated amines, with organohalides as the alkylating agent. Given the innate reactivity of the nitrenoid, a catalyst is not required, resulting in a high tolerance for aryl halide substituents in both starting materials.

Our methodology has proven to be scalable, air and moisture tolerant, highly chemoselective and engages both aliphatic and aromatic nitro compounds. Moreover, this general and step-economical synthesis of aromatic secondary amines showcases orthogonality to other aromatic amine syntheses as it tolerates aryl halides and carbonyl compounds.

The shortest carbon chain length on the support provided the best results, which may be due to the trapping of metal nanoparticles more efficiently by the basic nitrogen sites. The catalytic activities of these materials were evaluated for C-N and C-C coupling reactions. The most active catalyst, Pd1Cu1@12DA-STS, was characterized by various techniques including SEM, HR-TEM, ICP-AES, XRD, FTIR, EDX, CHN analysis and TGA studies. Moreover, the synthesized catalyst was found to be recyclable for up to five runs without significant loss of activity.
