Heterogeneous Hydrogenation of Quinoline Derivatives Effected by a Granular Cobalt Catalyst
Timelthaler, Daniel,Topf, Christoph
, p. 629 - 642 (2021/11/22)
We communicate a convenient method for the pressure hydrogenation of quinolines in aqueous solution by using a particulate cobalt-based catalyst that is prepared in situ from simple Co(OAc)2 4H2O through reduction with abundant zinc powder. This catalytic protocol permits a brisk and atom-efficient access to a variety of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines thereby relying solely on easy-to-handle reagents that are all readily obtained from commercial sources. Both the reaction setup assembly and the autoclave charging procedure are conducted on the bench outside an inert-gas-operated containment system, thus rendering the overall synthesis time-saving and operationally very simple.
Homogeneous pressure hydrogenation of quinolines effected by a bench-stable tungsten-based pre-catalyst
Heizinger, Christian,Topf, Christoph,Vielhaber, Thomas
, p. 451 - 461 (2021/11/11)
We report on an operationally simple catalytic method for the tungsten-catalyzed hydrogenation of quinolines through the use of the easily handled and self-contained precursor [WCl(η5-Cp)(CO)3]. This half sandwich complex is indefinitely storable on the bench in simple screw-capped bottles or stoppered flasks and can, if required, be prepared on a multi-gram scale while the actual catalytic transformations were performed in the presence of a Lewis acid in order to achieve both decent substrate conversions and product yields. The described method represents a facile and atom-efficient access to a variety of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolines that circumvents the use of cost-intensive and oxygen-sensitive phosphine ligands as well as auxiliary hydride reagents.
Cu-Catalyzed Chemoselective Reduction of N-Heteroaromatics with NH3·BH3 in Aqueous Solution

An efficient catalytic system was successfully developed on reduction of N-heteroaromatics with H3N?BH3 as hydrogen source in CuSO4 solution, featuring excellent chemoselectivity as well as very broad functional group tolerance. Various challenging substrates, such as OH-, NH2-, Cl-, Br-, etc., contained quinolines, quinoxalines, 1,5-naphthyridines and quinazolines were all reduced smoothly. Mechanistic studies suggested that [Cu-H] intermediate might be generated from NH3?BH3, which was believed to form with H3N?BH3 in CuSO4 solution.
