Aerobic oxidative CH functionalization of primary aliphatic amines has been accomplished with a biomimetic cooperative catalytic system to furnish 1,2-disubstituted benzimidazoles that play an important role as drug discovery targets. This one-pot atom-economical multistep process, which proceeds under mild conditions, with ambient air and equimolar amounts of each coupling partner, constitutes a convenient environmentally friendly strategy to functionalize non-activated aliphatic amines that remain challenging substrates for non-enzymatic catalytic aerobic systems.

The utilization of β-fluoroamines as pharmaceutical components for drug development has attracted a considerable amount of interest. However, direct access to tertiary β-fluoroamines is challenging. We herein report the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric amination of tertiary allylic trichloroacetimidates with anilines and cyclic aliphatic amines to access tertiary β-fluoroamines, where the α-carbon atom is bonded to four different substituents, in good yield with high levels of enantioselectivity.

Metalloporphyrins have been widely utilized as building blocks for molecular self-assembly in organic solvents, but their application in water is less common due to competition from water molecules for the metal center. However, Co(III) metalloporphyrins are notable for their strong binding to two aromatic amine ligands in aqueous buffers. In this study, we present a comprehensive investigation of the binding behavior of Co(III) tetraphenyl sulfonic acid porphyrin with selected aromatic and aliphatic amines in aqueous solution.

Pyrazinamide derivatives have been extensively studied for their biological activities, such as anti-tuberculosis activity and antiviral activities. In this work, a continuous-flow system was developed for the synthesis of pyrazinamide derivatives from pyrazine esters and amines (aliphatic amine, benzylamines and morpholine) catalyzed by Lipozyme® TL IM from , which was used for the first time. The reaction parameters including solvent, substrate ratio, reaction temperature and reaction time/flow rate were also studied in detail.

The hydrodeoxygenation of amide to amine is one of the most important amine synthetic approaches in chemical engineering. However, low amide reactivity and poor amine selectivity remain big challenges for catalytic hydrodeoxygenation of amides. Here, Ru-VO/TiO catalysts with different V/Ru atomic ratios were prepared with the sequential impregnation method.
