This method has performed reductive amination on various functionalized amines and aldehydes, including aliphatic, aromatic, and heteroaromatic compounds. The reductive amination of the carbonyl compounds occurred in a single step without any side reaction. The key benefits of this technique included its easiness, greener protocol, quick transformation, variety of substrates, high yield, metal-free, and solvent recyclability. This helps to make the procedure practical, affordable, and biodegradable.Graphical abstractA novel, green, catalyst-free, and efficient method has been developed for one-pot reductive amination of carbonyl compounds using sodium borohydride. This method has performed reductive amination on various functionalized amines and aldehydes, including aliphatic, aromatic, and hetero-aromatic ones. The reductive amination of the carbonyl compounds occurred in a single step without any side reaction. The key benefits of this technique included its easiness, greener protocol, quick transformation, variety of substrates, outstanding yield, metal-free, and solvent recyclability. This helps to make the procedure practical, affordable, and biodegradable. In this work, we studied electron-donating, electron-withdrawing, aliphatic, heterocyclic, and chiral amines used in the reaction.[graphic not available: see fulltext] TI - Metal-free, an effective and one-pot protocol for the reductive amination of aldehydes using glycerol as a green solvent JF - "Journal of Chemical Sciences" DO - 10.1007/s12039-023-02172-3 DA - 2023-05-29 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/springer-journals/metal-free-an-effective-and-one-pot-protocol-for-the-reductive-O9wtBp9Z0T VL - 135 IS - 2 DP - DeepDyve ER -
