A new manganese catalyzed heterocyclization of aminoalcohols has been accomplished. A wide range of heterocycles were synthesized, including 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines, dihydroquinolinones, and 2,3,4,5-tetrahydro-1H-benzo[b]azepines. The reaction is performed under mild reaction conditions using air and moisture stable manganese catalysts. The desired heterocycles were obtained in good to excellent yields.

Boric acid promoted transfer hydrogenation of substituted quinolines to synthetically versatile 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines (1,2,3,4-THQs) was described under mild reaction conditions using a Hantzsch ester as a mild organic hydrogen source. This methodology is practical and efficient, where isolated yields are excellent and reducible functional groups are well tolerated in the N-heteroarene moiety. The reaction parameters and tentative mechanistic pathways are demonstrated by various control experiments and NMR studies. The present work can also be scaled up to obtain gram quantities and the utility of the developed process is illustrated by the transformation of 1,2,3,4-THQs into a series of biologically important molecules including the antiarrhythmic drug nicainoprol.

The development of catalysts based on earth abundant metals in place of noble metals is becoming a central topic of catalysis. We herein report a cobalt/tetraphosphine complex-catalyzed homogeneous hydrogenation of polar unsaturated compounds using an air- and moisture-stable and scalable precatalyst. By activation with potassium hydroxide, this cobalt system shows both high efficiency (up to 24 000 TON and 12 000 h-1 TOF) and excellent chemoselectivities with various aldehydes, ketones, imines, and even N-heteroarenes. The preference for 1,2-reduction over 1,4-reduction makes this method an efficient way to prepare allylic alcohols and amines. Meanwhile, efficient hydrogenation of the challenging N-heteroarenes is also furnished with excellent functional group tolerance. Mechanistic studies and control experiments demonstrated that a CoIH complex functions as a strong hydride donor in the catalytic cycle. Each cobalt intermediate on the catalytic cycle was characterized, and a plausible outer-sphere mechanism was proposed. Noteworthy, external inorganic base plays multiple roles in this reaction and functions in almost every step of the catalytic cycle.
