The article was titled 《Catalytic Hydroboration and Reductive Amination of Carbonyl Compounds by HBpin using a Zinc Promoter》, and you may find the article in Chemistry – An Asian Journal.Computed Properties of C7H7NO The information in the text is summarized as follows:
The chemoselective hydroboration of aldehydes and ketones, catalyzed by Zinc(II) complexes [κ2-(PyCH:NR)ZnX2] (1, R = CPh3, X = Cl; 2, R = 2,6-iPr2C6H3, X = I), by pinacolborane (HBpin) at ambient temperature and under solvent-free conditions, which produced the corresponding borate esters in high yield, is reported. Zinc metal complexes 1 and 2 were derived in 80-90% yield from the reaction of iminopyridine [PyCH:NR] with anhydrous zinc dichloride in dichloromethane at room temperature The solid-state structures of both zinc complexes were confirmed using X-ray crystallog. Zinc complex 1 was also used as a competent pre-catalyst in the reductive amination of carbonyl compounds with HBpin under mild and solvent-free conditions to afford a high yield (up to 97%) of the corresponding secondary amines. The wider substrate scope of both reactions was explored. Catalytic protocols using zinc as a pre-catalyst demonstrated an atom-economic and green method with diverse substrates bearing excellent functional group tolerance. Computational studies established a plausible mechanism for catalytic hydroboration. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, 4-Acetylpyridine(cas: 1122-54-9Computed Properties of C7H7NO)
4-Acetylpyridine(cas: 1122-54-9) belongs to pyridine. Pyridine is widely used in the precursor to agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals. Also, it is used as an important reagent and organic solvent.Computed Properties of C7H7NO
