Ru-catalyzed synthesis of linear primary benzylic, heterocyclic, and aliphatic amines. aReaction conditions: a0.5 mmol aldehyde, 2 mol% RuCl2(PPh3)3, 5–7 bar NH3, 40 bar H2 1.5 mL t-amyl alcohol, 130 oC, 24 h, isolated yields. bGC yields using n-hexadecane as standard. csame as ‘a’ for 30 h. Isolated as free amines and converted to hydrochloride salts. Corresponding hydrochloride salts were subjected to NMR analysis
