Abstract
A sustainable catalytic synthesis of selective monoalkylated amines from nitroarenes and alcohols by new palladium(II)-NNO pincer-type complexes has been described. Herein, a series of Pd(II) complexes [Pd(NNO)PPh3] (1-3) are synthesized and characterized by analytical and spectroscopic (IR, NMR, and HR-MS) methods. The solid-state molecular structures of two complexes are established by X-ray single-crystal diffraction. Furthermore, the catalytic N-alkylation of challenging nitroarenes with primary and secondary alcohols has been performed by the well-defined palladium(II) complexes via borrowing hydrogen strategy. The current protocol offers a wide range of monoalkylated amines (26 examples) with a maximum yield of 87% utilizing 1 mol % of catalyst loading. Gratifyingly, the catalytic system works well under mild reaction conditions and atom economy with water is the only byproduct. Furthermore, control experiments confirm the formation of probable intermediates (aniline, aldehyde, and imine), and deuterium labeling authenticates the borrowing hydrogen mechanism. A gram-scale synthesis of an alkylated product clearly demonstrates the synthetic efficacy of the present catalytic methodology.

Abstract
Direct reductive N-methylation of inexpensive and readily available nitro compounds as raw material feedstocks is more attractive and straightforward compared with conventional N-methylation of amines to prepare biologically and pharmaceutically important N-methylated amine derivatives. This strategy for synthesis of N-methylamines avoids prepreparation of NH-free amines and therefore significantly shortens the separation and purification steps. In recent years, numerous methylating agents and catalytic systems have been reported for this appealing transformation. Thus, it is an appropriate time to summarize such advances. This review elaborates on the most important discoveries and advances in this research arena, with special emphasis on the mechanistic aspect of reactions that may provide new insights into catalyst improvement.

Abstract
Site-specific incorporation of deuterium into drug molecules to study and improve their biological properties is crucial for drug discovery and development. Herein, we describe a palladium-catalyzed room-temperature deuterogenolysis of carbon-oxygen bonds in alcohols and ketones with D2 balloon for practical synthesis of deuterated pharmaceuticals and chemicals with benzyl-site (sp3 C-H) D-incorporation. The highlights of this deoxygenative deuteration strategy are mild conditions, broad scope, practicability and high chemoselectivity. To enable the direct use of D2 O, electrocatalytic D2 O-splitting is adapted to in situ supply D2 on demand. With this system, the precise incorporation of deuterium in the metabolic position (benzyl-site) of ibuprofen is demonstrated in a sustainable and practical way with D2 O.

Abstract
We present an economical catalytic procedure to convert readily available 1,2-diaminobenzenes and terminal epoxides into valuable 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxalines in a highly enantioselective fashion. This procedure operates through relay zinc and iridium catalysis, and achieves redox-neutral and stereoconvergent production of valuable chiral heterocycles from racemic starting materials with water as the only side product. The use of commercially available reagents and catalysts and a convenient procedure also make this catalytic method attractive for practical application.
