Abstract

An efficient and highly eco-friendly protocol for the preparation of N,N´-dibenzyl or N,N´-(2-hydroxybenzyl)diamines via the reduction of the corresponding di-Schiff bases that produces a good yield using water as a solvent without the need for catalysis or the azeotropic removal of water has been developed. These symmetric diimines have been reduced to their corresponding diamines with sodium borohydride using a catalyst- and solvent-free protocol with excellent yield. Mild conditions, high yields, and a simple work-up procedure are the primary benefits of this protocol.
