Recent years have witnessed important progress in synthetic strategies exploiting the reactivity of carbocations via photochemical or electrochemical methods. Yet, most of the developed methods are limited in their scope to certain stabilized positions in molecules. Herein, we report a metal-free system based on the iodine (I/III) catalytic manifold, which gives access to carbenium ion intermediates also on electronically disfavored benzylic positions. The unusually high reactivity of the system stems from a complexation of iodine (III) intermediates with BF3. The synthetic utility of our decarboxylative Ritter-type amination protocol has been demonstrated by the functionalization of benzylic as well as aliphatic carboxylic acids, including late-stage modification of different pharmaceutical molecules. Notably, the amination of ketoprofen was performed on a gram scale. Detailed mechanistic investigations by kinetic analysis and control experiments suggest two mechanistic pathways.

The combination of tris(pyrazolyl)borate cobalt complexes and Lewis base is developed as an efficient catalyst precursor in the homogeneous hydrogenation. A broad substrate scope including carbonyls, alkenes, enamines, and imines is reduced with 60 atm of H2 at 60 °C. Mechanistic studies support the hydrogenation operates through a frustrated Lewis pair (FLP)-like reduction process. These results highlight the development of novel non-noble metal catalytic processes, when combined with the diverse small molecule activation chemistry associated with FLPs.

The hydrogenation of amides is a straightforward method to produce (possibly bio-based) amines. However current amide hydrogenation catalysts have only been validated in a rather limited range of toxic solvents and the hydrogenation of aliphatic (acyclic) primary amides has rarely been investigated. Here, we report the use of a new and relatively cheap ruthenium-tungsten bimetallic catalyst in the green and benign solvent cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME). Besides the effect of the Lewis acid promotor, NH3 partial pressure is identified as the key parameter leading to high primary amine yields. In our model reaction with hexanamide, yields of up to 83% hexylamine could be achieved. Beside the NH3 partial pressure, we investigated the effect of the catalyst support, PGM-Lewis acid ratio, H2 pressure, temperature, solvent tolerance and product stability. Finally, the catalyst was characterized and proven to be very stable and highly suitable for the hydrogenation of a broad range of amides.
