Nickel-catalyzed sustainable synthesis of N-heterocycles through dehydrogenative coupling of alcohols

The synthesis of N-heterocycles is considered to be an emerging field in synthetic chemistry owing to their application in the pharmaceutical as well as bulk and fine chemical industries. The disadvantages associated with the classical methods for the synthesis of these N-heterocycles involves multiple synthetic steps, scarcity of the starting materials and stoichiometric waste generation. Acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling and borrowing...
