Sodium Hypophosphite as a Bulk and Environmentally Friendly Reducing Agent in the Reductive Amination
Organic Letters(2022)
Abstract
NaH2PO2 was found to promote reductive amination. Being nontoxic, stable, environmentally benign, and available in bulk amounts, this reducing agent showed a powerful potential to compete with classical reductants applied in the target process. An E factor of 1 was achieved for the substrate scope. Different carbonyl compounds reacted with amines under the developed conditions. The reaction demonstrated a great compatibility with a wide range of functional groups. Reaction conditions were scaled up to 200-fold.
