Abstract
Surface engineering is a promising strategy to improve the catalytic activities of heterogeneous catalysts. Nevertheless, few studies have been devoted to investigate the catalytic behavior differences of the multiple metal active sites triggered by the surface imperfections on catalysis. Herein, oxygen vacancies induced Fe2O3 catalyst are demonstrated with different Fe sites around one oxygen vacancy and exhibited significant catalytic performance for the carbonylation of various aryl halides and amines/alcohols with CO. The developed catalytic system displays excellent activity, selectivity, and reusability for the synthesis of carbonylated chemicals, including drugs and chiral molecules, via aminocarbonylation and alkoxycarbonylation. Combined characterizations disclose the formation of oxygen vacancies. Control experiments and density functional theory calculations demonstrate the selective combination of the three Fe sites is vital to improve the catalytic performance by catalyzing the elemental steps of PhI activation, CO insertion and C-N/C-O coupling respectively, endowing combinatorial sites catalyst for multistep reactions.

Abstract
The Ru(dppbsa)-catalyzed reductive amination of ketones with nitroarenes and nitriles using H2 as the environmentally benign hydrogen surrogate is developed in this study. Cross-experiments demonstrated that both reactions are initiated by the reduction of nitroarenes or nitriles to the corresponding amines, followed by condensation with ketones to give imines and thereafter hydrogenation. However, the route to the formation of an amino-ligated Ru complex during the reduction of nitroarenes or nitriles, followed by in situ nucleophilic C-N coupling, cannot be completely excluded. This newly developed versatile method features good functional group tolerance, which provides a novel design platform for homogeneous catalysts in constructing motifs of secondary amines.
