Abstract
This work describes a new well-defined, air-stable, phosphine free palladium(II) [Pd(L)Cl] (1) catalyst. This catalyst was utilized for N-alkylation of amines and indole synthesis where H2O was found to be the by-product. A broad range of aromatic amines were alkylated using this homogeneous catalyst with a catalyst loading of 0.1 mol%. Greener aromatic and aliphatic primary alcohols were utilized and a hydrogen auto-transfer strategy via a metal-ligand cooperative approach was investigated. The precursor of the antihistamine-containing drug molecule tripelennamine was synthesized on a gram scale for large-scale applicability of the current synthetic methodology. A number of control experiments were performed to investigate the possible reaction pathway and the outcomes of these experiments indicated the azo-chromophore as a hydrogen reservoir during the catalytic cycle.

Abstract
An unexpected reversal in catalytic activity for acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling compared to acceptorless alcohol dehydrogenation has been observed using a series of cationic Ru(II)-CNC pincer complexes with different ancillary ligands. In continuation of our study of cationic Ru(II)-CNC pincer complexes 1a-6a, new complexes with bulky N-wingtips [Ru(CNCiPr)(CO)(PPh3)Br]PF6 (1b), [Ru(CNCCy)(CO)(PPh3)Cl]PF6 (1c), [Ru(CNCCy)(CO)(PPh3)H]PF6 (2c), [Ru(CNCiPr)(PPh3)2Cl]PF6 (3b), [Ru(CNCCy)(PPh3)2Cl]PF6 (3c), [Ru(CNCiPr)(PPh3)2H]PF6 (4b), [Ru(CNCCy)(PPh3)2H]PF6 (4c), [Ru(CNCiPr)(DMSO)2Cl]PF6 (6b), and [Ru(CNCCy)(DMSO)2Cl]PF6 (6c) [CNCR = 2,6-bis(1-alkylimidazol-2-ylidene)-pyridine] have been synthesized and the catalytic activities of the new complexes have been compared with their N-methyl analogues for transfer hydrogenation of cyclohexanone and acceptorless dehydrogenation of benzyl alcohol. Furthermore, all complexes have been utilized as catalysts in the dehydrogenative coupling reaction of benzyl alcohol with amines. While the catalytic activities of the new complexes for transfer hydrogenation and acceptorless alcohol dehydrogenation were found to be in line with the previously observed trend based on the ancillary ligands (CO > COD > DMSO > PPh3), for the acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling reaction, complexes containing PPh3 and DMSO ligands performed better compared to complexes containing CO and COD ligands. Based on NMR and mass investigation of catalytic reactions, a plausible mechanism has been suggested to explain the difference in catalytic activity and its reversal during the dehydrogenative coupling reaction. Furthermore, the substrate scope for the dehydrogenative coupling reaction of benzyl alcohol with a wide range of amines has been explored, including synthesizing some pharmaceutically important imines. All new complexes have been characterized by various spectroscopic techniques, and the structures of 4b and 6b have been confirmed by the single-crystal X-ray diffraction technique.

Abstract
A low temperature hydrogen borrowing approach to generate secondary amines using benzimidazole-based N-heterocyclic carbene (BNHC) ruthenium complexes is reported. A series of the piano-stool complexes of the type [(η6-p-cymene)(BNHC)RuCl2] (1a-g) were synthesized via one-pot reaction of the NHC salt precursor, Ag2O, and [RuCl2(p-cymene)]2 and characterized using conventional spectroscopic techniques. The geometry of two precursors, [(η6-p-cymene)(Me4BnMe2BNHCCH2OxMe)RuCl2] (1f) and [(η6-p-cymene)(Me5BnMe2BNHCCH2OxMe)RuCl2] (1g), was studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction. These catalysts were found to dehydrogenate alcohols efficiently at temperatures as low as 50 °C to allow Schiff-base condensation and subsequent imine hydrogenation to afford secondary amines. Notably, this ruthenium-based procedure enables the N-alkylation of aromatic and heteroaromatic primary amines with a wide range of primary alcohols in excellent yields of up to 98%. The present methodology is green and water is liberated as the sole byproduct.

CHEMSUSCHEM 2023; 16:e202300513. [PMID: 37191041 DOI: 10.1002/cssc.202300513] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2023] [Revised: 05/15/2023] [Accepted: 05/16/2023] [Indexed: 05/17/2023]
Abstract
Higher amines are important high-valuable chemicals with wide applications, and amination of alcohols is a green route to them, which however generally suffers from harsh reaction conditions and use of equivalent base. Herein, we report an ionic-liquid (IL) hydrogen-bonding promoted dihydrogen autotransfer strategy for amination of alcohols to higher amines over cobalt catalyst under base-free conditions. Co(BF4 )2 ⋅ 6 H2 O complexed with triphos and IL (e. g., tetrabutylphosphonium tetrafluoroborate, [P4444 ][BF4 ]) shows high performances for the reaction and is tolerant of a wide scope of amines and alcohols, affording higher amines in good to excellent yields. Mechanism investigation indicates that the [BF4 ]- anion activates the alcohol via hydrogen bonding, promoting transfer of both hydroxyl H and α-H atoms of alcohol to the cobalt catalyst to form an aldehyde intermediate and cobalt dihydride complex, which are involved in the subsequent reductive amination. This strategy provides a green and effective route for alcohol amination, which may have promising applications in alcohol-involved alkylation reactions.

Abstract
We report a sustainable and eco-friendly approach for selective N-alkylation of various amines by alcohols, catalyzed by a well-defined Zn(II)-catalyst, Zn(La)Cl2 (1a), bearing a tridentate arylazo scaffold. A total of 57 N-alkylated amines were prepared in good to excellent yields, out of which 17 examples are new. The Zn(II)-catalyst shows wide functional group tolerance, is compatible with the synthesis of dialkylated amines via double N-alkylation of diamines, and produces the precursors in high yields for the marketed drugs tripelennamine and thonzonium bromide in gram-scale reactions. Control reactions and DFT studies indicate that electron transfer events occur at the azo-chromophore throughout the catalytic process, which shuttles between neutral azo, one-electron reduced azo-anion radical, and two-electron reduced hydrazo forms acting both as electron and hydrogen reservoir, enabling the Zn(II)-catalyst for N-alkylation reaction.

Abstract
An efficient ruthenium-catalyzed N-alkylation of amines, amides and sulfonamides has been developed employing novel pentamethylcyclopentadienylruthenium(II) complexes bearing the methylene linked bis(NHC) ligand bis(3-methylimidazol-2-ylidene)methane. The acetonitrile complex 2 has proven particularly effective with a broad range of substrates with low catalyst loading (0.1-2.5 mol%) and high functional group tolerance under mild conditions. A total of 52 N-alkylated organonitrogen compounds including biologically relevant scaffolds were synthesized from (hetero)aromatic and aliphatic amines, amides and sulfonamides using alcohols or diols as alkylating agents in up to 99% isolated yield, even on gram-scale reactions. In the case of sulfonamides, it is the first example of N-alkylation employing a transition-metal complex bearing NHC ligands.

Abstract
For the first time, a direct single-step one-pot route to access nine new symmetric tetraalkynylated anthracenes via Pd(CH3CN)2Cl2/cataCXium®A catalyzed tetra-fold Sonogashira coupling is reported. Five of these tetraalkynylated anthracenes have been crystallographically characterized, with two of them exhibiting multiple interactions that significantly shorten the inter-planar distances in the solid-state structure. The rich photophysical properties exhibited by these molecules hold immense promise for future applications in sensors and optoelectronic devices. Two of the considered tetraalkynylated anthracenes comprising a D-π-A-π-D motif demonstrate solvatochromism and halochromism, with one of them showing a low bandgap of 1.79 eV. The remaining compounds demonstrate bandgaps in the range of 1.79-2.04 eV.

Dutta M, Srivastava HK, Kumar A. Rational design of pincer-nickel complexes for catalytic cyanomethylation of benzaldehyde: A systematic DFT study. J Comput Chem 2021; 42:1728-1735. [PMID: 34196021 DOI: 10.1002/jcc.26708] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/11/2021] [Revised: 06/14/2021] [Accepted: 06/17/2021] [Indexed: 11/06/2022]
Abstract
The current study dwells upon the efforts to computationally probe a phosphine-free pincer-nickel complex that would demonstrate an efficiency better than the reported phosphine-based pincer-nickel complex (iPr2 POCNEt2 )Ni(CH2 CN) for cyanomethylation reaction. For this purpose, the mechanism of cyanomethylation of benzaldehyde was studied quantum mechanically for a series of 11 pincer-nickel complexes. The energetics of various intermediates and transition states involved in the catalytic cycle for each catalyst was compared with the corresponding energetics of the Miller's catalyst (iPr2 POCNEt2 )Ni(CH2 CN) that is reported to accomplish the cyanomethylation at room temperature. While pincer complexes (iPr4 NNN)Ni(CH2 CN) and (iPr4 NCN)Ni(CH2 CN) containing strong σ-donating amines were found to fare poorly, pincer-nickel complexes (iPr2 NCN)Ni(CH2 CN) and (dm PheboxNCN)Ni(CH2 CN) based on weaker σ-donating imines had energetics more favorable than the reported efficient catalyst (iPr2 POCNEt2 )Ni(CH2 CN). While strong trans-influencing C as the pincer central atom was found to be pivotal for lowering the cyanomethylation kinetics, presence of a poor trans-influencing N proved to be detrimental on the overall energetics.

Abstract
The synthesis and characterization of chiral pincer-ruthenium complexes of the type (R2NNN)RuCl2 (PPh3) (R = 3-methylbutyl and 3,3-dimethylbutyl) is reported here. The cytotoxicity studies of these complexes were studied and compared with the corresponding activity of achiral complexes. The cytotoxic effect of pincer-ruthenium complexes on human dermal fibroblasts and human tongue carcinoma cells assessed using 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay displayed an inhibition of normal and cancer cell growth in a dose-dependent manner. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level measurement, lactate dehydrogenase assay, DNA fragmentation, and necrosis studies revealed that treatment with pincer-ruthenium complexes induced a redox imbalance in SAS cells by upregulating ROS generation and caused necrotic cell death by disrupting the cellular membrane integrity.

Abstract
Metal hydride complexes are key intermediates for N-alkylation of amines with alcohols by the borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen autotransfer (BH/HA) strategy. Reactivity tuning of metal hydride complexes could adjust the dehydrogenation of alcohols and the hydrogenation of imines. Herein we report ruthenium(ii) complexes with hetero-bidentate N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-phosphine ligands, which realize smart pathway selection in the N-alkylated reaction via reactivity tuning of [Ru-H] species by hetero-bidentate ligands. In particular, complex 6cb with a phenyl wingtip group and BArF- counter anion, is shown to be one of the most efficient pre-catalysts for this transformation (temperature is as low as 70 °C, neat conditions and catalyst loading is as low as 0.25 mol%). A large variety of (hetero)aromatic amines and primary alcohols were efficiently converted into mono-N-alkylated amines in good to excellent isolated yields. Notably, aliphatic amines, challenging methanol and diamines could also be transformed into the desired products. Detailed control experiments and density functional theory (DFT) calculations provide insights to understand the mechanism and the smart pathway selection via [Ru-H] species in this process.

Abstract
Organometallic catalysts have played a key role in accomplishing numerous synthetically valuable organic transformations that are either otherwise not possible or inefficient. The use of precious, sparse and toxic 4d and 5d metals are an apparent downside of several such catalytic systems despite their immense success over the last several decades. The use of complexes containing Earth-abundant, inexpensive and less hazardous 3d metals, such as nickel, as catalysts for organic transformations has been an emerging field in recent times. In particular, the versatile nature of the corresponding pincer-metal complexes, which offers great control of their reactivity via countless variations, has garnered great interest among organometallic chemists who are looking for greener and cheaper alternatives. In this context, the current review attempts to provide a glimpse of recent developments in the chemistry of pincer-nickel catalyzed reactions. Notably, there have been examples of pincer-nickel catalyzed reactions involving two electron changes via purely organometallic mechanisms that are strikingly similar to those observed with heavier Pd and Pt analogues. On the other hand, there have been distinct differences where the pincer-nickel complexes catalyze single-electron radical reactions. The applicability of pincer-nickel complexes in catalyzing cross-coupling reactions, oxidation reactions, (de)hydrogenation reactions, dehydrogenative coupling, hydrosilylation, hydroboration, C-H activation and carbon dioxide functionalization has been reviewed here from synthesis and mechanistic points of view. The flurry of global pincer-nickel related activities offer promising avenues in catalyzing synthetically valuable organic transformations.
