A simple one-pot procedure for the iminium salt formation: an efficient route to β-arylethylamines
摘要:
A practical and highly efficient process for the preparation of beta-arylethylamines 7 was developed. Benzylic organozinc compounds 10 were reacted with the iminium salts 9 generated in situ from the amine salt 8 and para formaldehyde in one pot and in a polar and aprotic solvent, such as NMP. A variety of the beta-arylethylamines were prepared in 43-91% yields. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
