Brønsted Acid Catalysis: Organocatalytic Hydrogenation of Imines

Abstract
A new Brønsted acid catalysed hydrogenation of imines with Hantzsch dihydropyridine as the hydrogen source has been ­developed. Diphenyl phosphate (DPP) and various other acids ­catalyse this first metal-free hydrogen transfer to give various amines under mild reaction conditions.
