Nitriles are converted to primary amines with high selectivity using a newly developed alumina-supported rhodium catalyst. The high selectivity is obtained without any additives, which are often used to prevent the formation of higher amines. The catalyst is active under mild conditions in various solvents, which makes it specifically suitable for use in pharmaceutical applications or for other substrates that can react with additives like strong acids or bases.

Direct catalytic multicomponent synthesis of β-(C3)-substituted pyrroles is developed with good to high yields, using aqueous succinaldehyde, primary amines, and isatins under mild conditions. An access to the β-substituted free NH-pyrrole is the main focus of the work along with DFT-calculations.

Abstract Hydrogenation of nitriles represents as an atom-economic route to synthesize amines, crucial building blocks in fine chemicals. However, high redox potentials of nitriles render this approach to produce a mixture of amines, imines and low-value hydrogenolysis byproducts in general. Here we show that quasi atomic-dispersion of Pd within the outermost layer of Ni nanoparticles to form a Pd1Ni single-atom surface alloy structure maximizes the Pd utilization and breaks the strong metal-selectivity relations in benzonitrile hydrogenation, by prompting the yield of dibenzylamine drastically from ∼5 to 97% under mild conditions (80 °C; 0.6 MPa), and boosting an activity to about eight and four times higher than Pd and Pt standard catalysts, respectively. More importantly, the undesired carcinogenic toluene by-product is completely prohibited, rendering its practical applications, especially in pharmaceutical industry. Such strategy can be extended to a broad scope of nitriles with high yields of secondary amines under mild conditions.

<div> <p>The synthesis, characterization, and activity of Pd-doped layered double hydroxides (Pd-LDHs) for for acceptorless amine dehydrogenation is reported. These multifunctional catalysts comprise Brønsted basic and Lewis acidic surface sites that stabilize Pd species in 0, 2+, and 4+ oxidation states. Pd speciation and corresponding cataytic performance is a strong function of metal loading. Excellent activity is observed for the oxidative transamination of primary amines and acceptorless dehydrogenation of secondary amines to secondary imines using a low Pd loading (0.5 mol%), without the need for oxidants. N-heterocycles, such as indoline, 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline, and piperidine, are dehydrogenated to the corresponding aromatics with high yields. The relative yields of secondary imines are proportional to the calculated free energy of reaction, while yields for oxidative amination correlate with the electrophilicity of primary imine intermediates. Reversible amine dehydrogenation and imine hydrogenation determine the relative imine:amine selectivity. Poisoning tests evidence that Pd-LDHs operate heterogeneously, with negligible metal leaching; catalysts can be regenerated by acid dissolution and re-precipitation.</p> </div> <br>

AbstractAn efficient Cu-catalyzed synthesis of carbazole derivatives is reported, which proceeds by double C–N coupling reactions of 2,2′-dibromobiphenyl and amines in the presence of air. The reaction is robust, proceeds in high yields, and tolerates a series of amines including neutral, electron-rich, electron-deficient aromatic amines and aliphatic amines.
