Abstract

ethylenediamine (LTMDA) by using our standard conditions," an oil was isolated in 85% yield, which contained 90% of the desired aldehyde 2, 8% of isomers 3 and 4, and 2% starting material (1). A similar reaction using benzene as the solvent (entry b) also failed to give the desired degree (> 95%) of substitution at the 2-position. The use of lithium N- methylpiperazide (LNMP) as the amine component allowed for better regioselectivity, but ...
