N-Alkylamidomethylation at Electron-rich Carbons in the 1, 3, 5-Trialkylhexahydro-1, 3, 5-triazine-Acetyl Chloride System

Abstract

A new N-alkylamidomethylation reaction at electron-rich carbons has been developed using 1, 3, 5-trialkylhexahydro-1, 3, 5-triazine in the presence of acetyl chloride. This reaction was carried out not only with aromatics such as phenols, alkoxybenzenes and aromatic amines, but also olefins such as styrene and vinyl ethers.
