Abstract
Amines are powerful building blocks in the chemical industry due to their high reactivity. They also find various applications in fine chemistry. In the context of sustainable chemistry, the hydrogenation of imines and reductive amination of aldehydes and ketones represent efficient tools to give direct access to amines. For the asymmetric hydrogenation of imines, many catalyst precursors containing a transition metal and chiral phosphorus- or nitrogen-based ligands give rise to high yields and enantioselectivities. The one-pot reductive amination reaction involves the condensation of carbonyl and amine groups, followed by the hydrogenation of the resulting imine or enamine, performed by either heterogeneous or homogeneous catalysis. Molecular hydrogen or organic donors providing hydrogen by transfer can be used in both reactions. The more economical and environmentally friendly catalysts based on iron or copper offer attractive options in these two synthetic pathways.
