Copper-catalyzed reductive amination of aromatic and aliphatic ketones with anilines using environmental-friendly molecular hydrogen

Abstract

A convenient and practical copper-catalyzed reductive amination was discovered. In the presence of easily available and inexpensive Cu(OAc)2 various ketones react with anilines and molecular hydrogen to give the desired amines in high yields.
