[reaction: see text] Reaction of para-substituted anilines with styrene derivatives at elevated temperatures, when catalyzed by CF3SO3H, results in highly chemoselective ortho-alkylation of the aniline. When R = H, dialkylation can be achieved by varying the ratio of styrene to aniline. Several different substituted anilines and styrenes were examined, and good yields (42-87%) were obtained, except in the case where electron-withdrawing substituents are present on the styrene.
[反应:见正文] 在高温下,对取代苯胺与苯乙烯衍生物在三氟甲磺酸(CF3SO3H)催化下反应,可实现苯胺的高化学选择性邻位烷基化。当R = H时,通过改变苯乙烯与苯胺的比例可实现二烷基化。研究了几种不同的取代苯胺和苯乙烯,除了苯乙烯上存在吸电子取代基的情况外,均获得了良好的产率(42 - 87%)。
