Abstract

Graphical abstract: Highlights: Mono functionalization of diols is achieved with heterogeneous borrowing hydrogen catalyst. Evidences of tautomeric equilibrium are found. Diethylene glycol can be used to prepare epsilon amino alcohols with central ether. Pd/C, ZnO combination can be applied to other diols different from ethylene glycol. Abstract: A borrowing hydrogen reaction with different diols was employed for the preparation of complex beta - gamma- or epsilon -amino alcohols from p -toluidine and tetrahydroquinoline with the aim of better understanding the applicability of the Pd/C ZnO heterogeneous catalyst.
