  • Title: An improved ruthenium catalyst for the environmentally benign amination of primary and secondary alcohols.
    Author: Hollmann D, Tillack A, Michalik D, Jackstell R, Beller M.
    Journal: Chem Asian J; 2007 Mar 05; 2(3):403-10. PubMed ID: 17441177.
    Abstract:
    The N-alkylation of amines in the presence of different ruthenium catalysts generated in situ was investigated. Among the various catalysts tested, the combination of [Ru3(CO)12] and N-phenyl-2-(dicyclohexylphosphanyl)pyrrole showed the best performance. By applying this novel catalyst, a variety of functionalized alcohols and amines were converted into the corresponding secondary amines in high yield.
