A simple and efficient method for preparation of imines by the oxidative coupling of benzyl alcohols with aromatic amines or aliphatic amines was developed. The reaction was catalyzed by 9-azabicyclo[3.3.1] nonan-N-oxyl (ABNO)/KOH with air as the economic and green oxidant. Under the optimal reaction conditions, a variety of imines were obtained in 80%-96% isolated yields.
