1,1′-(1,4-Butanediyl)bis(imidazole) was prepared by a modified method and its application as an efficient promoter was demonstrated for the mechanosynthesis of N-methyl imines using ball milling as a non-conventional process under solvent-free conditions. In this new protocol design, the bis-imidazole acted as a recyclable acid-scavenging agent. This efficient approach to the N-methyl imines displays a combination of the synthetic virtues of a non-conventional condensation reaction with ecological benefits and convenience of a facile mechanosynthetic process. The current method has advantages such as reduced waste by avoiding solvent, exclusion of hazardous materials during the reaction, elimination of handling an anhydrous gas in an evacuated container or a solution of methylamine in ethanol, good yields for relatively unreactive benzaldehydes containing electron-donating substituents, short reaction times, and metal- and acid-free conditions. Furthermore, the promoter was easily regenerated and reused several times with no significant loss of activity.
Synthetic communications reviews: Synthesis of primary amines by one-pot reductive amination of aldehydes

We report here a novel, one-pot, two-step reductive amination of aldehydes for the atom-economical synthesis of primary amines. The amination step has been carried out with hydroxylammonium chloride and does not require the use of a base. In the subsequent reduction step, a metal zinc/hydrochloride acid system has been used. This method is applicable to both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes. The operational simplicity, the short reaction times, and the mild reaction conditions add to the value of this method as a practical alternative to the reductive amination of aldehydes. Copyright

Novel 4-phenyl tetrahydroisoquinolines that inhibit both dopamine and norepinephrine transporters were designed and prepared. In this Letter, we describe the synthesis, in vitro activity and associated structure-activity relationships of this series. We also report the ex vivo NET occupancy of a representative compound, 41.
