Practical One-Pot Synthesis of Secondary Amines by Zinc-Catalyzed Reductive Amination

Abstract: In the present study, the zinc-catalyzed reductive amination of various aldehydes has been examined in detail. Simple zinc(II) triflate was applied as hydrosilylation catalyst for the reduction of the in situ formed imine by condensation of an aldehyde with an amine. Using a practical Lewis acid catalyst and PMHS [poly(methylhydrosiloxane)] as cheap hydride source excellent yields and a broad functional group tolerance were achieved.

“…Interestingly, fairly good yields were obtained for the amination of acetophenone by uniformly adsorbing the carbonyl compound and the amine onto the surface of activated silica gel, stirring the mixture until complete formation of the imine had occurred, and then adding a solution of ZnBH 4 12. Furthermore, Zn(OTf) 2 , in combination with poly(methylhydrosiloxane) (PMHS) as a hydride source, was reported to be an useful system for the amination of aldehydes 13…”

“…The reduction of imines provides an interesting route to chiral amines. [29][30][31][32][33] In principle, the catalyst systems that have been applied for the reduction of ketones could also be applied for the reduction of imines under similar conditions. Ireland et al developed a ZnA C H T U N G T R E N N U N G (OTf) 2 -catalyzed asymmetric reduction of N-benzylphenylethylimine by using (R)-(+)-3,3'-dibromo-1,1'-bi-2-naphthol as a ligand.…”

“…Weitere Methoden zur Aktivierung N‐haltiger Substrate sind ebenfalls bekannt. Zum Beispiel können geschützte acyclische Imine durch Organoborane über die Bildung von Imin‐Boran‐Addukten19 oder durch Lewis‐Säuren aktiviert werden 2022. Cyclische Imine werden in ihrer aktivierten Form als Iminium23 und Azomethinimin24 reduziert; Trialkylsilyle werden zur Aktivierung von Pyridinen als Pyridiniumsalze25 verwendet, und Pyridin‐ N ‐Amidine können auch als aktivierte Pyridine reagieren 26.…”

“…21 Das Zwischenprodukt 4 , das in situ durch Koordination eines Silberkations an das Imino‐Stickstoffatom entsteht, wurde durch NMR‐spektroskopische Messungen in Lösung nachgewiesen. Für die Aktivierung des Imin‐Zwischenprodukts bei der reduktiven Aminierung von Aldehyden erwies sich Zink(II)‐triflat als effektiv 22 …”
