Abstract in another language

The use of earth-abundant transition metals as a noble metal replacement in catalysis is especially interesting if different catalytic reactivity is observed. We report, here, on the selective manganese-catalyzed base-switchable synthesis of N-alkylated amines or imines. In both reactions, borrowing hydrogen/hydrogen autotransfer (N-alkyl amine formation) or dehydrogenative condensation (imine formation), we start from the same amines and alcohols and use the same Mn precatalyst. The key is the presence of a potassium base to prefer N-alkylation and a sodium base to permit imine formation. Both bases react with the manganese hydride via deprotonation. The potassium manganate hydride reacts about 40 times faster with an imine to give the corresponding amine than the sodium manganate hydride. The selectivity seems unique for manganese complexes. We observe a broad scope with a complete product overlap, all amine alcohol combinations can be converted into an N-alkyl amine or an imine, and a good functional group tolerance.
