摘要

Selective ruthenium-catalyzed reductive coupling of primary amides under hydrosilylation conditions is achieved using an one pot procedure. Using 3 equiv. of phenylsilane and [RuCl2 (mesitylene)] 2 (1–2 mol%) as the catalyst at 100° C under neat conditions, secondary symmetric amines were obtained in good yields and with high chemoselectivities.
