Abstract

The Front Cover shows a recyclable Ru/C catalyst that enables selective mono-amination of unprotected sugars under borrowing-hydrogen conditions. The system avoids protection and degradation, delivers secondary amines in up to 79% yield, offers broad amine scope, tunable selectivity, intact sugar backbones, and mechanistic insight from DFT. More information can be found in the Research Article by S. Hameury, K. De Oliveira Vigier and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/cctc.202501137).
