| Summary: | Bimetallic catalysts are gaining attention due to their characteristics of promoting reactivity and selectivity in catalyzed reactions. Herein, a new catalytic <i>N</i>-formylation of secondary amines using AuPd–Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> at room temperature is reported. Methanol was utilized as the formyl source and 1.0 atm of O<sub>2</sub> gas served as an external oxidant. The bimetallic catalyst, consisting of Au and Pd, makes the reaction more efficient than that using each metal separately. In addition, the catalyst can be effectively recycled owing to the Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> support. |
