Abstract

Rhenium(I) nitrosyl complexes bearing large bite angle diphosphines efficiently catalyze the hydrogenation of nitriles to the corresponding symmetrical secondary amines. ... Scheme 1. Formation of different types of imines/amines in the hydrogenation of aromatic nitriles. ... Herein we communicate the first example of the homogeneous reduction of nitriles to amines using rhenium catalysts bearing large bite angle bisphosphines. Bite angles were shown to be crucial ...
