“…[7] Reaction of styrene with aniline derivatives: A mixture of styrene (1 mmol), aniline derivative (5 mmol), catalyst (1 mol %) and silver trif- H NMR spectroscopy and yields calculated based on the amount of arene. Products were identified according to previously reported spectroscopic data: 2-(1-phenylethyl)benzenamine and 4-(1-phenylethyl)benzenamine, N-(1-phenylethyl)aniline, [20] 2-methyl-6-(1-phenylethyl)benzenamine and 2-methyl-4-(1-phenylethyl)benzenamine, [14] a-methyl-N-(2-methylphenyl)-benzenemethanamine, [21] 4-methyl-2-(1-phenylethyl)benzenamine, amethyl-N-(4-methylphenyl)benzenemethanamine, 4-fluoro-2-(1-phenyl-A C H T U N G T R E N N U N G ethyl)benzanamine and N-(4-fluorophenyl)-a-methylbenzenemethan-A C H T U N G T R E N N U N G amine, [17] 4-chloro-2-(1-phenylethyl)benzanamine [14] and N-(4-chlorophenyl)-a-methylbenzenemethanamine, [22] 4-methoxy-2-(1-phenylethyl)-benzanamine [17] and N-(4-methoxyphenyl)-a-methylbenzenemethanamine. [21] Tandem reaction: A mixture of benzylating agent (1 mmol), anisole (10 mmol), iPrOH (1.5 mmol), catalyst (1 mol %) and silver triflate (3 mol %) was heated at 110 8C in a thick-walled glass tube fitted with a Teflon cap.…”
