Catalytic Amination of Aldehydes to Amides

Abstract: Aldehydes react in a disproportionation reaction in the presence of rhodium catalysts to yield amines and amides. By adding N‐methylmorpholine N‐oxide as an oxidant in the presence of catalytic amounts of rhodium, the oxidative amination of aldehydes proceeds selectively to give the corresponding amide. Both aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes react with secondary amines to yield carboxylic acid amides in good to excellent yields.

“…Ten years later, Beller and co-workers proposed the combination of a cationic rhodium catalyst, [Ru­(COD) 2 ]­BF 4 , with triphenylphosphine as a ligand to report the first Rh-catalyzed condensation of aldehydes with secondary amines . The success of such a catalytic system was ensured by both the addition of a stoichiometric amount of NMO ( N -methylmorpholine N -oxide) that was in charge of regenerating a catalytically active rhodium dehydrogenation catalyst and of K 2 CO 3 (10 mol %) as a cocatalyst.…”

“…Commonly used amide synthesis methods suffer from stoichiometric quantities of activating reagents, which lead to the production of large quantities of waste . To overcome the drawback, several catalytic strategies have been developed for the construction of an amide bond, including transition-metal-catalyzed transamidation, oxidative amidation, and carbonylation . Subsequently, the utilization of Lewis acids, such as Ti, Zr, and Hf catalysts for the direct amidation between carboxylic acids and amines has been developed as a promising alternative …”

“…Although homogeneous catalysis is often connected with the rational development of catalysts or reactions, our results show that the area of transition metal-catalyzed amination reactions offers considerable potential to discover new and unusual reactions. Examples from our side include the oxidative amination of styrenes, amination reac-tions of norbornadiene, the recent oxidative amination of aldehydes 60 and the catalytic alkylation of aromatic amines with styrene. 61 In addition to the development of new catalysts and studies of the organometallic chemistry of transition metal amine complexes, we believe that unusual reaction conditions (the use of supercritical solvents, e.g.…”
