Abstract
The selective N-monomethylation of amines is an important topic in fine chemical synthesis. Herein, for the first time, we described a selective N-monomethylation reaction of amines with paraformaldehyde and H2 in the presence of a CuAlOx catalyst. A variety of amines, including primary aromatic amines, benzylamine and cyclohexylamine, as well as secondary amines, have been shown to be compatible with this reaction.
Selective N-monomethylation of amines using paraformaldehyde and H2 in the presence of CuAlOx catalyst allows for the synthesis of various compounds, including primary aromatic amines and secondary amines.
