substituted N,N-dimethylbenzylamines was developed by tuning the acidity of reaction conditions based on analysis of their features. The ortho-functionalized N,N-dimethylbenzylamines were further transformed into 3-(2'-tolyl)propanoic acid and its derivatives under mild conditions. These two transformations could be combined into one pot, and 3-(2'-tolyl)propanoic acid and its derivatives were obtained in
取代的 N,N-二甲基苄胺的高度区域选择性烯化是通过基于对其特征的分析调整反应条件的酸度来开发的。在温和条件下,邻位官能化的 N,N-二甲基苄胺进一步转化为 3-(2'-甲苯基) 丙酸及其衍生物。这两种转化可以合二为一,3-(2'-甲苯基)丙酸及其衍生物以中等至良好的收率获得。机理研究表明,在 N,N-二甲基氨基甲基的辅助下,Pd(II) 离子对苯环的亲电攻击是该催化转化过程中的关键步骤,这受反应条件的酸性控制。
