In this study, a nickel-catalyzed alpha-alkylation of unactivated amides and ester (tert-butyl acetate) is carried out by using primary alcohols under mild conditions. This C-C bond-forming reaction is catalyzed by a new, molecularly defined nickel(II) NNN-pincer complex (0.1-1 mol %) and proceeds through hydrogen auto-transfer, thereby releasing water as the sole byproduct. In addition, N-alkylation of cyclic amides under Ni-catalytic conditions is demonstrated.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">7.411</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Rana, Jagannath</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Babu, Reshma</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Subaramanian, Murugan</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Balaraman, Ekambaram</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ni-catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of primary and secondary alcohols with methyl-N-heteroaromatics</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Organic Chemistry Frontiers</style></secondary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2018</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">NOV</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3250-3255</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Here we report the first base-metal catalyzed dehydrogenative coupling of primary (aromatic, heteroaromatic, and aliphatic) and secondary alcohols with methyl-N-heteroaromatics to form various C(sp(3))-alkylated N-heteroaromatics. The reaction is enabled by Earth abundant, non-precious NiBr2 as a transition metal catalyst and N,N,N,N-tetramethylethylenediamine (TMEDA) as a ligand system. Mechanistic studies reveal that a hydrogen auto-transfer process is involved in the direct C(sp(3))-alkylation and the reaction proceeds through an -olefination process.</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">22</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article </style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">5.455</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
