Abstract
Acceptorless dehydrogenative oxidation of primary amines into nitriles using an in situ complex derived from commercially available dichloro(1,5-cyclooctadiene) ruthenium(II) complex and simple hexamethylenetetramine has been demonstrated. The synthetic protocol is highly selective and yields the nitrile compounds in moderate to excellent yields and produces hydrogen as the sole byproduct. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
