Abstract
The highly desirable synthesis of the widely-used primary amides directly from alcohols and ammonia via acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling represents a clean, atom-economical, sustainable process. Nevertheless, such a reaction has not been previously reported, and the existing catalytic systems instead generate other N-containing products, e.g., amines, imines and nitriles. Herein, we demonstrate an efficient and selective ruthenium-catalyzed synthesis of primary amides from alcohols and ammonia gas, accompanied by H2 liberation. Various aliphatic and aromatic primary amides were synthesized in high yields, with no observable N-containing byproducts. The selectivity of this system toward primary amide formation is rationalized through density functional theory (DFT) calculations, which show that dehydrogenation of the hemiaminal intermediate into primary amide is energetically favored over its dehydration into imine.

Abstract
![]()
Rhodium
and iridium diolefin catalysts for the acceptorless and
base-free dehydrogenation of secondary alcohols have been prepared,
and their degradation has been investigated, during the study of the
reactivity of the dimers [M(μ-Cl)(η4-C8H12)]2 (M = Rh (1), Ir
(2)) and [M(μ-OH)(η4-C8H12)]2 (M = Rh (3), Ir (4)) with 1,3-bis(6′-methyl-2′-pyridylimino)isoindoline
(HBMePHI). Complex 1 reacts with HBMePHI, in dichloromethane,
to afford equilibrium mixtures of 1, the mononuclear
derivative RhCl(η4-C8H12){κ1-Npy-(HBMePHI)} (5), and the binuclear species [RhCl(η4-C8H12)]2{μ-Npy,Npy-(HBMePHI)} (6). Under
the same conditions, complex 2 affords the iridium counterparts
IrCl(η4-C8H12){κ1-Npy-(HBMePHI)} (7) and [IrCl(η4-C8H12)]2{μ-Npy,Npy-(HBMePHI)} (8). In contrast to chloride,
one of the hydroxide groups of 3 and 4 promotes
the deprotonation of HBMePHI to give [M(η4-C8H12)]2(μ-OH){μ-Npy,Niso-(BMePHI)} (M = Rh
(9), Ir (10)), which are efficient precatalysts
for the acceptorless and base-free dehydrogenation of secondary alcohols.
In the presence of KOtBu, the [BMePHI]− ligand undergoes three different degradations: alcoholysis
of an exocyclic isoindoline-N double bond, alcoholysis of a pyridyl-N
bond, and opening of the five-membered ring of the isoindoline core.

Abstract
![]()
We have recently reported the previously
unknown synthesis of thioesters
by coupling thiols and alcohols (or aldehydes) with liberation of
H2, as well as the reverse hydrogenation of thioesters,
catalyzed by a well-defined ruthenium acridine-9H based pincer complex.
These reactions are highly selective and are not deactivated by the
strongly coordinating thiols. Herein, the mechanism of this reversible
transformation is investigated in detail by a combined experimental
and computational (DFT) approach. We elucidate the likely pathway
of the reactions, and demonstrate experimentally how hydrogen gas
pressure governs selectivity toward hydrogenation or dehydrogenation.
With respect to the dehydrogenative process, we discuss a competing
mechanism for ester formation, which despite being thermodynamically
preferable, it is kinetically inhibited due to the relatively high
acidity of thiol compared to alcohol and, accordingly, the substantial
difference in the relative stabilities of a ruthenium thiolate intermediate
as opposed to a ruthenium alkoxide intermediate. Accordingly, various
additional reaction pathways were considered and are discussed herein,
including the dehydrogenative coupling of alcohol to ester and the
Tischenko reaction coupling aldehyde to ester. This study should inform
future green, (de)hydrogenative catalysis with thiols and other transformations
catalyzed by related ruthenium pincer complexes.
