研究目的
Investigating the photocatalytic self-condensation of primary amines to symmetric secondary amines at ambient temperature using a Pd/TiO2 photocatalyst.
研究成果
The developed photocatalytic method efficiently synthesizes symmetric secondary amines from primary amines at ambient temperature, offering an environmentally friendly and atom-economical alternative to traditional methods. The protocol's applicability was demonstrated in a one-pot pharmaceutical synthesis.
研究不足
The method shows limited reactivity with primary amines bearing strongly electron-withdrawing groups or sterically hindered amines. Cross-condensation of different amines yields complex mixtures.
