Herein, we report pyridine and other similar azaaromatics as efficient biomimetic hydrogen shuttles for a transition-metal-free direct N-alkylation of aryl and heteroaryl amines using a variety of benzylic and straight chain alcohols. Mechanistic studies including deuterium labeling and the isolation of dihydro-intermediates of the benzannulated pyridine confirmed the role of pyridine and a borrowing hydrogen process operating in these reactions. In addition, we have extended this methodology for the development of dehydrogenative synthesis of quinolines and indoles, as well as the transfer hydrogenation of ketones. This journal is

This study represents the first example of a bidentate phosphine-free manganese(I)-NN complex catalyst for the synthesis of quinolines (pyridines) through acceptorless dehydrogenative condensation of various secondary alcohols with amino alcohols. The coupling reactions occurred at 3 mol% catalyst loading and 110°C, and tolerated diverse functional groups. Moderate to excellent yields ranging from 45% to 89% were achieved after 12 hr of reaction. The present protocol provides a concise and environmentally friendly method for the construction of heterocyclic compounds.

The unusual nonbifunctional outer-sphere strategy was successfully utilized in developing an easily accessible N-heterocyclic carbene manganese (NHC-Mn) system for highly active α-alkylation of ketones with alcohols. This system was efficient for a wide range of ketones and alcohols under mild reaction conditions, and also for the green synthesis of quinoline derivatives. The direct outer-sphere mechanism and the high activity of the present system demonstrate the potential of nonbifunctional outer-sphere strategy in catalyst design for acceptorless dehydrogenative transformations.
