Half-sandwich iridium complexes bearing bidentate urea-phosphorus ligands were found to catalyze the direct reductive amination of aromatic and aliphatic ketones under mild conditions at 0.5 mol % loading with high selectivity towards primary amines. One of the complexes was found to be active in both the Leuckart–Wallach (NH4CO2H) type reaction as well as in the hydrogenative (H2/NH4AcO) reductive amination. The protocol with ammonium formate does not require an inert atmosphere, dry solvents, as well as additives and in contrast to previous reports takes place in hexafluoroisopropanol (HFIP) instead of methanol. Applying NH4CO2D or D2 resulted in a high degree of deuterium incorporation into the primary amine α-position.

We report the synthesis of in situ generated cobalt nanoparticles from molecularly defined complexes as efficient and selective catalysts for reductive amination reactions. In the presence of ammonia and hydrogen, cobalt-salen complexes such as cobalt(ii)-N,N′-bis(salicylidene)-1,2-phenylenediamine produce ultra-small (2-4 nm) cobalt-nanoparticles embedded in a carbon-nitrogen framework. The resulting materials constitute stable, reusable and magnetically separable catalysts, which enable the synthesis of linear and branched benzylic, heterocyclic and aliphatic primary amines from carbonyl compounds and ammonia. The isolated nanoparticles also represent excellent catalysts for the synthesis of primary, secondary as well as tertiary amines including biologically relevant N-methyl amines.

Nickel nanoparticles loaded onto calcium silicate (Ni/CaSiO3) have been prepared by ion-exchange method followed by in situ H 2-reduction of the calcined precursor. Ni/CaSiO3 was found to be effective for the catalytic direct synthesis of primary amines from alcohols and NH3 under relatively mild conditions. Various aliphatic alcohols are tolerated, and the turnover number (TON) was higher than those of Ru-based homogeneous catalysts. The catalyst was recoverable and was reused. Effects of the surface oxidation states and particle size of Ni on the catalytic activity were studied by infrared (IR) investigation of the states of adsorbed CO and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). It is clarified that the surface Ni0 sites on small (3 nm) sized Ni nanoparticles are the catalytically active species. Ni/CaSiO3 was also effective for the alkylation of anilines and aliphatic amines with various alcohols (benzyl and aliphatic alcohols) under additive free conditions; primary amines were converted into secondary amines and secondary amines into tertiary amines.
