and green method for the selectivesynthesis of tertiary amines has been developed that involves iridium-catalyzed alkylation of various primary amines with aromatic or aliphatic alcohols. Notably, the catalytic protocol enables this transformation in the absence of additional base and solvent. Furthermore, the alkylation of nitrobenzene with primary alcohol to tertiary amine has also been achieved by

Potassiumhydroxide is a competent and cheap catalyst for theintermolecular addition of arylamines to styrenes. The reactionsare performed in nontoxic dimethyl sulfoxide and can be used forthe large-scale synthesis of β-phenylethylamines.
