Key Points

The central aim is to explore an efficient method for the dehydrogenation of benzylamines using a ruthenium complex.
Utilized visible light to assist the catalytic dehydrogenation process.
Involved the standalone ruthenium complex as a catalyst.
Investigated the conversion of benzylamines to nitriles.
Successfully converted benzylamines to nitriles with high efficiency.
Produced hydrogen gas (H2) as a byproduct of the reaction.

Implication

Investigates the production of nitriles from benzylamines, highlighting potential for hydrogen storage technologies.

Abstract

The dehydrogenation of benzyl amines to produce the corresponding nitriles and H2 is an appealing strategy due to their application in hydrogen storage technologies. On the other hand, a wide...
