    Cobalt pincer complexes for catalytic reduction of nitriles to primary amines
    (London : RSC Publ., 2019) Schneekönig, Jacob; Tannert, Bianca; Hornke, Helen; Beller, Matthias; Junge, Kathrin
    Various cobalt pincer type complexes 1-6 were applied for the catalytic hydrogenation of nitriles to amines. Among these, catalyst 4 is the most efficient, allowing the reduction of aromatic as well as aliphatic nitriles in moderate to excellent yields. © 2019 The Royal Society of Chemistry.

    Unprecedented selective homogeneous cobalt-catalysed reductive alkoxylation of cyclic imides under mild conditions
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2017) Cabrero-Antonino, Jose R.; Adam, Rosa; Papa, Veronica; Holsten, Mattes; Junge, Kathrin; Beller, Matthias
    The first general and efficient non-noble metal-catalysed reductive C2-alkoxylation of cyclic imides (phthalimides and succinimides) is presented. Crucial for the success is the use of [Co(BF4)2·6H2O/triphos (L1)] combination and no external additives are required. Using the optimal cobalt-system, the hydrogenation of the aromatic ring of the parent phthalimide is avoided and only one of the carbonyl groups is selectively functionalized. The resulting products, N- and aryl-ring substituted 3-alkoxy-2,3-dihydro-1H-isoindolin-1-one and N-substituted 3-alkoxy-pyrrolidin-2-one derivatives, are prepared under mild conditions in good to excellent isolated yields. Intramolecular reductive couplings can also be performed affording tricyclic compounds in a one-step process. The present protocol opens the way to the development of new base-metal processes for the straightforward synthesis of functionalized N-heterocyclic compounds of pharmaceutical and biological interest.

    Efficient and selective hydrogenation of amides to alcohols and amines using a well-defined manganese-PNN pincer complex
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2017) Papa, Veronica; Cabrero-Antonino, Jose R.; Alberico, Elisabetta; Spanneberg, Anke; Junge, Kathrin; Junge, Henrik; Beller, Matthias
    Novel well-defined NNP and PNP manganese pincer complexes have been synthetized and fully characterized. The catalyst Mn-2 containing an imidazolyaminolphosphino ligand shows high activity and selectivity in the hydrogenation of a wide range of secondary and tertiary amides to the corresponding alcohols and amines, under relatively mild conditions. For the first time, more challenging substrates like primary aromatic amides including an actual herbicide can also be hydrogenated using this earth-abundant metal-based pincer catalyst.

    Towards a general ruthenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of secondary and tertiary amides to amines
    (Cambridge : RSC, 2016) Cabrero-Antonino, Jose R.; Alberico, Elisabetta; Junge, Kathrin; Junge, Henrik; Beller, Matthias
    A broad range of secondary and tertiary amides has been hydrogenated to the corresponding amines under mild conditions using an in situ catalyst generated by combining [Ru(acac)3], 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane (Triphos) and Yb(OTf)3. The presence of the metal triflate allows to mitigate reaction conditions compared to previous reports thus improving yields and selectivities in the desired amines. The excellent isolated yields of two scale-up experiments corroborate the feasibility of the reaction protocol. Control experiments indicate that, after the initial reduction of the amide carbonyl group, the reaction proceeds through the reductive amination of the alcohol with the amine arising from collapse of the intermediate hemiaminal.
