Aldehydes and ketones were reductively aminated by a one‐pot procedure using a recyclable iron‐based Lewis catalyst, Aquivion‐Fe, to promote imine formation, and NaBH4 as reductant in cyclopentyl methyl ether and methanol. The developed protocol was successfully applied to the preparation of Cinacalcet, an important active pharmaceutical ingredient.
mechanistic investigations, including (1)H and (31)P(1)H} NMR studies; isolation and characterization of several catalytic intermediates, Pt(xantphos)Cl(2), Pt(eta(2)-C(3)H(5)OH)(xantphos), etc; confirmation of the structure of [Pt(eta(3)-allyl)(xantphos)]OTf by X-ray crystallographic analysis; and crossover experiments, suggested that formation of the pi-allylplatinum complex through the elimination of water

reactions with a tandem hydroformylation-Fischer indole synthesis sequence as a highly diversity-oriented strategy for the synthesis of tryptamines and homologues was explored. This modular approach allows the substituents at C3 of the indole core, the type of the amine moiety, and the distance of the amine moiety to the indole core in the final synthetic step to be defined. The starting materials required
New 1,2,4,5-tetrakis-(N-imidazoliniummethyl)benzene and 1,2,4,5-tetrakis-(N-benzimidazoliummethyl)benzene salts as N-heterocyclic tetracarbene precursors: synthesis and involvement in ruthenium-catalyzed allylation reactions
New tetraimidazolinium and tetrabenzimidazolium salts have been prepared. Upon reaction with tBuOK, they generate carbene ligands, which were associated in situ to [RuCp*(MeCN)3]PF6 to produce new ruthenium catalysts that are active for the substitution of allylic substrates by amines, phenols, and carbonucleophiles. The influence of the N-heterocyclic core as well as that of the N-substitutents at
