A metal-free environmentally benign, simple, and efficient transfer hydrogenation process of quinoxaline has been developed using the HBpin reagent as a hydrogen source. This reaction is compatible with a variety of quinoxalines offering the desired tetrahydroquinoxalines in moderate-to-excellent yields with Bu4NBr as a noncorrosive and low-cost catalyst.

An efficient catalytic system was successfully developed on reduction of N-heteroaromatics with H3N?BH3 as hydrogen source in CuSO4 solution, featuring excellent chemoselectivity as well as very broad functional group tolerance. Various challenging substrates, such as OH-, NH2-, Cl-, Br-, etc., contained quinolines, quinoxalines, 1,5-naphthyridines and quinazolines were all reduced smoothly. Mechanistic studies suggested that [Cu-H] intermediate might be generated from NH3?BH3, which was believed to form with H3N?BH3 in CuSO4 solution.

A simple dinuclear monohydrido bridged ruthenium complex [{(η6-p-cymene)RuCl}2(μ-H-μ-Cl)] acts as an efficient and selective catalyst for the hydrogenation of various heteroarenes and arenes. The nature of the catalytically active species was investigated using a combination of techniques including in situ reaction monitoring, kinetic studies, quantitative poisoning experiments and electron microscopy, evidencing a dual reactivity. The results suggest that the hydrogenation of heteroarenes proceeds via molecular catalysis. In particular, monitoring the reaction progress by NMR spectroscopy indicates that [{(η6-p-cymene)RuCl}2(μ-H-μ-Cl)] is transformed into monomeric ruthenium intermediates, which upon subsequent activation of dihydrogen and hydride transfer accomplish the hydrogenation of heteroarenes under homogeneous conditions. In contrast, carbocyclic aryl motifs are hydrogenated via a heterogeneous pathway, by in situ generated ruthenium nanoparticles. Remarkably, these hydrogenation reactions can be performed using molecular hydrogen under solvent-free conditions or with 1,4-dioxane, and thus give access to a broad range of saturated heterocycles and carbocycles while generating no waste.
