The author of 《Phosphine-Free Well-Defined Mn(I) Complex-Catalyzed Synthesis of Amine, Imine, and 2,3-Dihydro-1H-perimidine via Hydrogen Autotransfer or Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling of Amine and Alcohol》 were Das, Kalicharan; Mondal, Avijit; Pal, Debjyoti; Srivastava, Hemant Kumar; Srimani, Dipankar. And the article was published in Organometallics in 2019. Quality Control of (4-Bromophenyl)methanol The author mentioned the following in the article:
The application of nontoxic, earth-abundant transition metals in place of costly noble metals is a paramount goal in catalysis and is especially interesting if the air- and moisture-stable ligand scaffold was used. Herein, the authors report the synthesis of amines/imines directly from alc. and amines via H autotransfer or acceptorless dehydrogenation catalyzed by well-defined phosphine-free Mn complexes. Both imines and amines can be obtained from the same set of alcs. and amines using the same catalyst, only by tuning the reaction conditions. The amount and nature of the base are a highly important aspect for the observed selectivity. Both the primary and secondary amines were employed as substrates for the N-alkylation reaction. As a highlight, the authors showed the chemoselective synthesis of resveratrol derivatives Also, the Mn-catalyzed dehydrogenative synthesis of structurally important 2,3-dihydro-1H-perimidines also was demonstrated. D. functional theory calculations were also carried out to model the reaction path and to calculate the reaction profile. After reading the article, we found that the author used (4-Bromophenyl)methanol(cas: 873-75-6Quality Control of (4-Bromophenyl)methanol)
(4-Bromophenyl)methanol(cas: 873-75-6) undergoes three-component reaction with acetylferrocene and arylboronic acid to give ferrocenyl ketones containing biaryls.Quality Control of (4-Bromophenyl)methanol It undergoes oxidation reaction in the presence of polyvinylpolypyrrolidone-supported hydrogen peroxide, silica sulfuric acid and ammonium bromide to yield 4-bromobenzaldehyde.
