Silver-Catalyzed Hydrogenation of Ketones under Mild Conditions

The silver-catalyzed hydrogenation of ketones using H2 as hydrogen source is reported. Silver nanoparticles are generated from simple silver (I) salts and operate at 25 °C under 20 bar of hydrogen pressure. Various aliphatic and aromatic ketones, including natural products were reduced into the corresponding alcohols in high yields. This silver catalyst allows for the selective hydrogenation of ketones in the presence of other functional groups. (Figure presented.).

Transfer Hydrogenation of Carbonyl Groups, Imines and N-Heterocycles Catalyzed by Simple, Bipyridine-Based MnI Complexes

Utilization of hydroxy-substituted bipyridine ligands in transition metal catalysis mimicking [Fe]-hydrogenase has been shown to be a promising approach in developing new catalysts for hydrogenation. For example, MnI complexes with 6,6′-dihydroxy-2,2′-bipyridine ligand have been previously shown to be active catalysts for CO2 hydrogenation. In this work, simple bipyridine-based Mn catalysts were developed that act as active catalysts for transfer hydrogenation of ketones, aldehydes and imines. For the first time, Mn-catalyzed transfer hydrogenation of N-heterocycles was reported. The highest catalytic activity among complexes with variously substituted ligands was observed for the complex bearing two OH groups in bipyridine. Deuterium labeling experiments suggest a monohydride pathway.

Hydrogenation of Carbonyl Derivatives with a Well-Defined Rhenium Precatalyst

The first efficient and general rhenium-catalyzed hydrogenation of carbonyl derivatives was developed. The key to the success of the reaction was the use of a well-defined rhenium complex bearing a tridentate diphosphinoamino ligand as the catalyst (0.5 mol %) at 70 °C in the presence of H2 (30 bar). The mechanism of the reaction was investigated by DFT(PBE0-D3) calculations.
