Mechanistic Insights into the PdII‐Catalyzed Chemoselective N‐Demethylation vs. Cyclometalation Reactivity Pathways in 1‐Aryl‐N,N‐dimethylethanamines

Abstract: Two structurally isomeric substituted N,N-dimethylethanamines have been prepared. Treatment of the 2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl isomer with Pd II ions generated the ortho-metalated complexes. On the other hand, treatment of the 2,5-di-tertbutylphenyl-substituted amine resulted in the unexpected chemoselective cleavage of one of the three N-C bonds, thus generating the corresponding secondary amine. The N-demethylation process could be catalyzed at room temperature by palladium(II) catalysts such as PdCl 2 or Pd(OAc… Show more

“…175 The proposed mechanism, which is a little different from the above Zhu mechanism, 167 189 A mechanism involving the elimination of the β-amino group in the presence of H 2 O was presented. 190 Initially, the amine would coordinate to the Pd center with the activation of a C−H bond and the formation of a Pd−C bond. Then a nucleophilic attack of OH − from water on the α-C will generate the complex 199, which will give the Pd(0) species and the secondary amine.…”
