ABSTRACT The reaction of Betti bases with various heterocycles in the presence of p-toluenesulphonic acid (PTSA) under microwave irradiation gives bis(heterocycle)methanes through benzyl transfer. The reaction proceeds via the cleavage of C-N bond followed by C-C bond. The metal-free cleavage of C-C bond, which is in fact a C-dearylation, is rarely reported in the literature. GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT
