Abstract
Reductive cross-amination between imine intermediates generated through partial hydrogenation of aniline or nitroarene derivatives and alkylamines is an ideal method for obtaining N-alkylated cyclohexylamine derivatives; however, no such transformations have hitherto been established. Here, we report a highly selective reductive cross-amination using aniline derivatives and alkylamines catalyzed by heterogeneous Rh/Pt bimetallic nanoparticles under mild conditions. The catalyst was recovered and reused for five runs, keeping high activity. In this reaction, imine intermediates generated during the course of partial hydrogenation of aniline derivatives were trapped immediately by strongly interacting primary alkylamines with the catalyst, which caused a highly selective transformation to give the desired products, while suppressing dicyclohexylamine formation.

The atmosphere was exchanged to H2 using a balloon and pump. The reaction mixture was stirred at 50 °C for 24 h, then the reaction was quenched by the addition of EtOAc (5 mL) and the reaction mixture was analyzed by GC using decane as internal standard.

The atmosphere was exchanged to H2 using balloon and pump. After the reaction mixture was stirred at 50 °C for 38 h, the reaction was quenched by the addition of CH2Cl2 (5 mL).
