Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To carry out the oxidative condensation, benzylamine (0.5 mmol) was heated with catalyst Pd@ba-GO (10 mg) and solvent CH3CN (0.2 mL) at 90° C. in a flask open to air for 6 hours, and then stirred also at 90° C. under H2 gas (1 atm) for 6 hours to obtain dibenzylamine. An unexpectedly high yield of 91% was achieved.
