Abstract
We found that molybdenum carbide (Mo2C) can be applied as a novel and efficient heterogeneous catalyst for hydrogen transfer of anilines and alcohols to synthesize N-alkylamines. The results of experiments and DFT calculations demonstrate that Mo2C surface can reduce the energy barrier of the key step of alcohol dehydrogenation and generate a hydrogen spillover effect, thereby exhibiting outstanding catalytic performance.
