The synthesis of amides is significant in a wide variety of academic and industrial fields. We report here a new reaction, namely acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling of epoxides and amines to form amides catalyzed by ruthenium pincer complexes. Various aryl epoxides and amines smoothly convert into the desired amides in high yields with the generation of H2 gas as the only byproduct. Control experiments
酰胺的合成在广泛的学术和工业领域具有重要意义。我们在这里报道了一种新的反应,即环氧化物和胺的无受体脱氢偶联形成由钌钳形配合物催化的酰胺。各种芳基环氧化物和胺以高产率顺利转化为所需的酰胺,产生的唯一副产物是 H 2气体。对照实验表明,酰胺的产生比副产物在动力学上更快,这可能是由于金属-配体合作容易激活环氧化物,这一点得到了对钌-烯醇化物的观察的支持。不涉及酒精或游离醛。提出了一种机制,涉及催化剂的双重作用,这是新反应高产率和选择性的原因。
