Deoxygenation of amine N-oxides using gold nanoparticles supported on carbon nanotubes†
Abstract
Deoxygenation of a variety of aromatic and aliphatic amine N-oxides has been carried out in excellent yield using dimethylphenylsilane as the reducing agent under the catalytic influence of a carbon nanotube–gold nanohybrid at room temperature. Low catalyst loading, good TON and TOF values, and recyclability of the catalyst are some of the salient features of our methodology.
