Imines are selectively formed by coupling of nitriles and amines under mild hydrogen pressure. The reaction is catalyzed by a bipyridine-based PNN Ru(II) pincer complex and proceeds under mild, neutral conditions at 4 bar of H(2).
亚胺是通过在适度的氢气压力下将腈和胺偶联而选择性形成的。该反应由基于联吡啶的PNN Ru(II)夹杂物催化,并在4 bar H(2)的温和中性条件下进行。
