B(C6F5)3-Catalyzed tandem cyclization/hydrosilylation for the step-economical construction of 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoxalines from readily available starting materials has been developed.
A process for producing an optically active amine compound, characterized by asymmetrically hydrogenating a prochiral carbon-nitrogen double bond in the presence of a ruthenium complex represented by general formula (1) or (2) (wherein P
represents an optically active diphosphine, X represents an anionic group, and Ar represents an optionally substituted arylene group).

A metal-free environmentally benign, simple, and efficient transfer hydrogenation process of quinoxaline has been developed using the HBpin reagent as a hydrogen source. This reaction is compatible with a variety of quinoxalines offering the desired tetrahydroquinoxalines in moderate-to-excellent yields with Bu4NBr as a noncorrosive and low-cost catalyst.

Rhodium-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of quinoxalines with water as a hydrogensource was reported. The reaction allowed the simple preparation of tetrahydroquinoxalines under mild conditions. The deuterium-labelling experiment confirmed that water is the sole hydrogensource in the transfer hydrogenation reaction.
The combination of [Cp*IrCl2](2) with N-(2-aminoethyl)-4-(trifluoromethyl)benzenesulfonamide constitutes an efficient catalyst for selective transfer hydrogenation of a variety of quinoxalines in water with HCOONa as the hydrogen source, affording the corresponding tetrahydroquinoxalines in good to excellent yields. The catalyst is air-stable, and the reduction could be performed without nitrogen protection. The aqueous phase reduction is shown to be highly pH-dependent, with acidic pH leading to better results. There exits a pH window for optimum rate, and the use of HOAc/NaOAc buffer solution is essential for maintaining a stable pH during the reaction. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
