Fe-catalysed Chemoselective Hydrogenation of Maleimide to Succinimide using Water as Hydrogen Source

ABAtanu BeraSMSuteerna Mullick

Key Points

  • The aim is to convert maleimides into succinimides using iron as a catalyst and water as the hydrogen source.
  • Utilized iron as a catalyst for the hydrogenation process.
  • Applied water as the hydrogen source.
  • Employed zinc as a reductant.
  • Conducted reactions without additional ligands.
  • Successfully converted maleimides to succinimides.
  • Demonstrated the effectiveness of water as a hydrogen source.
  • Achieved chemo-selectivity in the hydrogenation process.

Abstract

Herein, we demonstrated the first iron-catalysed chemo-selective transfer hydrogenation of maleimides to succinimides using water as the hydrogen source and zinc as the reductant. No additional ligand is required for...
