Condensation in recyclable water between aldehydes or ketones and amines occurs smoothly within the hydrophobic cores of nanomicelles, resulting in imine formation that is subject to subsequent reduction leading, overall, to reductive amination. This micellar technology enables the synthesis of several types of pharmaceuticals, a new procedure that relies on only 2000 ppm (0.20 mol %) palladium from commercially available Pd/C. A broad range of substrates can be used under mild conditions, leading to high chemical yields of the desired secondary and tertiary amines.

Abstract

Condensation in recyclable water between aldehydes or ketones and amines occurs smoothly within the hydrophobic cores of nanomicelles, resulting in imine formation that is subject to subsequent reduction leading, overall, to reductive amination. This micellar technology enables the synthesis of several types of pharmaceuticals, a new procedure that relies on only 2000 ppm (0.20 mol %) palladium from commercially available Pd/C. A broad range of substrates can be used under mild conditions, leading to high chemical yields of the desired secondary and tertiary amines.
