Abstract

Aromatic amines are formed in fair yield by the action of a solution of an alkali amide upon an aryl halide in liquid amm~ nia,~.~ but this reaction is sometimes accompanied by a rearrangement to the ortho position. 8 In the present article is reported the results of a preliminary investigation of the action of lithium dialkylamides (the lithium alcoholates of the ammonia system) on a number of aliphatic and aromatic halides dissolved in diethyl ether.
