Low-cost zinc is employed as a catalyst along with triethylsilane (TES) in a simple, straightforward, chemoselective reduction of various aldimines and ketimines to the corresponding secondary amines at room temperature and pressure.

Multi-amino groups and nitrogen donors compound was discovered as an organocatalyst for N-alkylation of alcohols with amines in the presence of Mo(CO)6. The Mo(CO)6/organocatalyst binary system has shown to be a highly active catalyst for the N-alkylation reaction between alcohols and amines with excellent tolerance of variable starting materials bearing different functional groups. Of particular note, this method possessing a superiority selectivity in the synthesis of N-alkylated amines or imines, which can be controlled by the reaction temperature. The cooperative catalysis mechanism in combination of Mo(CO)6 with organocatalyst was elucidated by control experiments.

Diethylsilane (Et2SiH2), a simple and readily available dihydrosilane, that exhibits superior reactivity, as compared to monohydrosilanes, in a series of reductive transformations catalyzed by recyclable and reusable Au nanoparticles (1 mol-%) supported on TiO2. It reduces aldehydes or ketones almost instantaneously at ambient conditions. It can be used in a one pot rapid reductive amination procedure, in which premixing of aldehyde and amine is required prior to the addition of the reducing agent and the catalyst, even in a protic solvent. An unprecedented method for the synthesis of N-arylisoindolines is also shown in the reductive amination between o-phthalaldehyde and anilines. In this transformation, it is proposed that the intermediate N,2-diphenylisoindolin-1-imines are reduced stepwise to the isoindolines. Finally, Et2SiH2 readily reduces amides into amines in excellent yields and shorter reaction times relative to previously known analogous nano Au(0)-catalyzed protocols.

Chemoselective reduction of imines to secondary amines is catalyzed efficiently by tethered and untethered, half-sandwich ruthenium N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) complexes at room temperature. The untethered Ru-NHC complexes are more efficient as catalysts for the reduction of aldimines and ketimines than the tethered complexes. Using the best untethered complex as a catalyst, electronic and steric demands on the reaction was probed using a series of imines. Chemoselectivity of the catalyst towards imine reduction was tested by performing inter and intramolecular competitive reactions in a variety of ways. The catalyst exhibits a very high TON and TOF under anaerobic conditions.
