Abstract
Endocyclic 1-azaallyl anions engage allyl acetates in a palladium-catalyzed allylation followed by reduction to give unprotected 2-(hetero)aryl-3-allylpiperidines and 2-allyl-3-arylmorpholines, products not easily accessible by other means. The allyl group is then readily transformed into a variety of functional groups. Preliminary studies on the asymmetric variant of the reaction using an enantiomerically pure BI-DIME-type ligand provide the product with moderate enantioselectivity. Computational studies suggest that energy barriers of inner-sphere reductive elimination and outer-sphere nucleophilic substitution are almost the same, which makes both of them possible reaction pathways. In addition, the inner-sphere mechanism displays an enantiodiscriminating C-C bond forming step, while the outer-sphere mechanism is much less selective, which combined to give the asymmetric variant of the reaction moderate enantioselectivity.

Abstract
The development of efficient hydrogen release and storage processes to provide environmentally friendly hydrogen solutions for mobile energy storage systems (MESS) stands as one of the most challenging tasks in addressing the energy crisis and environmental degradation. The catalytic dehydrogenative coupling of methanol and amines (DCMA) and its reverse are featured by high capacity for hydrogen release and storage, enhanced capability to purify the produced hydrogen, avoidance of carbon emissions and singular product composition, offering the environmentally and operationally benign strategy of overcoming the challenges associated with MESS. Particularly, the cycle between these two processes within the same catalytic system eliminates the need for collecting and transporting spent fuel back to a central facility, significantly facilitating easy recharging. Despite the promising attributes of the above strategy for environmentally friendly hydrogen solutions, challenges persist, primarily due to the high thermodynamic barriers encountered in methanol dehydrogenation and amide hydrogenation. By systematically summarizing various reaction mechanisms and pathways involving Ru-, Mn-, Fe-, and Mo-based catalytic systems in the development of catalytic DCMA and its reverse and the cycling between the two, this review highlights the current research landscape, identifies gaps, and suggests directions for future investigations to overcome these challenges. Additionally, the critical importance of developing efficient catalytic systems that operate under milder conditions, thereby facilitating the practical application of DCMA in MESS, is also underscored.

Abstract
To realize the goal of a carbon-free energy economy, it is crucial to discover reactions that utilize sustainable resources as alternatives to fossil feedstocks. In this study, a well-defined, air-stable Cp*Co(III)-catalyst for transfer hydrogenation of quinoline derivatives and oxidative dehydrogenation of cyclic amines in water is developed. While the former reaction is promoted by formic acid as a transfer hydrogenation reagent, the latter is mediated by molecular oxygen as the sole oxidant. These processes provide new avenues for the investigation of air-stable cobalt catalysts for environmentally benign hydrogenation and dehydrogenation reactions.

[PMID: 37441048 PMCID: PMC10334261 DOI: 10.1039/d3ra04305c] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/27/2023] [Accepted: 07/04/2023] [Indexed: 07/15/2023] Open
Abstract
The catalytic acceptorless dehydrogenation (ADH) of saturated N-heterocycles has recently gained considerable attention as a promising strategy for hydrogen release from liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs). Recently, a simple tBuOK base-promoted ADH of N-heterocycles was developed by Yu et al. (Adv. Synth. Catal. 2019, 361, 3958). However, it is still open as to how the tBuOK plays a catalytic role in the ADH process. Herein, our density functional study reveals that the tBuOK catalyzes the ADH of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline (THQ) through a quasi-metal-ligand bifunctional catalytic channel or a base-catalyzed pathway with close energy barriers. The hydride transfer in the first dehydrogenation process is determined to be the rate determining step, and the second dehydrogenation can proceed directly from 34DHQ regulated by the tBuOK. In addition, the computational results show that the cooperation of a suitable alkali metal ion with the tBuO- group is so critical that the tBuOLi and the isolated tBuO- are both inferior to tBuOK as a dehydrogenation catalyst.

Abstract
The development of a sustainable and simple catalytic system for N-formylation of N-heterocycles with methanol by direct coupling remains a challenge, owing to many competing side reactions, given the sensitivity of N-heterocycles to many catalytic oxidation or dehydrogenation systems. This work concerns the development of an in situ-generated CuI catalytic system for oxidative N-formylation of N-heterocycles with methanol that is based on the case study of a more typical 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline as substrate. Aside from N-heterocycles, some acyclic amines are also transformed into the corresponding N-formamides in moderate yields. Furthermore, a probable reaction mechanism and reaction pathway are proposed and extension of work based on some findings leads to a demonstration that the formed ⋅O2 - and ⋅OOH radicals in the catalytic system is related to the formation of undesired tar-like products.

Abstract
To enable the large-scale use of hydrogen fuel cells for mobility applications, convenient methods for on-board hydrogen storage and release are required. A promising approach is liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs), since these are safe, available on a large scale, and compatible with existing refueling infrastructure. Usually, LOHC dehydrogenation is carried out in batch-type reactors by transition metals and their complexes and suffers from slow H2 release kinetics and/or inability to reach high energy density by weight, owing to low conversion or the need to dilute the reaction mixture. In this study, a continuous flow reactor is used in combination with a heterogenized iridium pincer complex, which enables a tremendous increase in LOHC dehydrogenation rates. Thus, dehydrogenation of isopropanol is performed in a regime that, in terms of gravimetric energy density, hydrogen generation rate, and precious metal content, is potentially compatible with applications in a fuel-cell powered car.

Abstract
The catalytic properties of graphene-derived materials are evaluated in acceptorless dehydrogenation of N-heterocycles. Among them, reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) are active (quantitative yields in 23 h) under mild conditions (130 °C) and act as efficient heterogeneous carbocatalysts. rGO exhibits reusability and stability at least during eight consecutive runs. Mechanistic investigations supported by experimental evidence (i.e., organic molecules as model compounds, purposely addition of metal impurities and selective functional group masking experiments) suggest a preferential contribution of ketone carbonyl groups as active sites for this transformation.
