Abstract
Diethyl 2-[N-(p-methoxyphenyl)imino]malonate underwent amination reactions with alkyl Grignard reagents to give N-aklylation products in good yields. The obtained N-alkylation products were readily converted into N-alkyl-p-anisidines by the oxidative removal of the malonate moiety. The p-methoxyphenyl group was subsequently deprotected to give primary amines.
