30. 3 (catalyst preparation according to the given protocol, catalyst loading: 1.5 mol % of Ni) at 160 °C in o-xylene. In contrast to the reported procedure, the cooling and infilling of the freshly reduced Ni-catalyst were done under dry argon (oxygen content <1 ppm) to exclude strictly the presence of external hydrogen in the reaction system. Under such conditions, we detected no activity of the Ni catalyst and no conversion of 2-octanol into 2-octylamine (reaction time 24 h). According to our observation, the amination of alcohols to primary amines does not really proceed as a "borrowing-hydrogen" reaction over heterogeneous Ni catalysts.
