Biphasic liquid/liquid reactions are commonplace, however their scale-up under super-heating conditions is not. Even more challenging efforts have to be expected in the case of a large scale continuous production process, which also includes the development at a lab scale, the selection and design of the continuous reaction equipment. However, by running chemistry above the boiling point of the solvent, the solvent selection can be widened to include green solvents and continuous processing guarantees a limited and safe footprint. Herein is reported a systematic methodology for the development and scale-up of a biphasic reaction under super-heating conditions, as well as the design of a continuous reactor column suitable for handling such conditions. Taking the alkylation of benzylamine with 1,5-dibromopentane as a model reaction, kinetic determination and fluid dynamic characterization of the biphasic media have been instrumental for a successful scale-up concept which was proven in a custom-made hastelloy reactor column.

A versatile metal- and base-free direct reductive amination of aldehydes with amines using formic acid as a reductant under the catalysis of inexpensive BF3·Et2O has been developed. A wide range of primary and secondary amines and diversely substituted aldehydes are compatible with this transformation, allowing facile access to various secondary and tertiary amines in high yields with wide functional group tolerance. Moreover, the method is convenient for the late-stage functionalization of bioactive compounds and preparation of commercialized drug molecules and biologically relevant N-heterocycles. The procedure has the advantages of simple operation and workup and easy scale-up, and does not require dry conditions, an inert atmosphere or a water scavenger. Mechanistic studies reveal the involvement of imine activation by BF3and hydride transfer from formic acid.
Deoxygenative hydroboration of primary, secondary, and tertiary amides: Catalyst-free synthesis of various substituted amines

Transformation of relatively less reactive functional groups under catalyst-free conditions is an interesting aspect and requires a typical protocol. Herein, we report the synthesis of various primary, secondary, and tertiary amines through hydroboration of amides using pinacolborane under catalyst-free and solvent-free conditions. The deoxygenative hydroboration of primary and secondary amides proceeded with excellent conversions. The comparatively less reactive tertiary amides were also converted to the corresponding N,N-diamines in moderate yields under catalyst-free conditions, although alcohols were obtained as a minor product.

Electrochemical reduction of amides was achieved by using a hydrosilane without any toxic or expensive metals. The key reactive ketyl radical intermediate was generated by cathodic reduction. Continuous reaction with anodically generated silyl radicals or zinc bromide resulted in chemoselective deoxygenation to give the corresponding amines.
