Abstract

N, N′-Bisalkoxycarbonyl-p-benzoquinone diimine underwent a thermal addition reaction with N, N-dimethylanilines to form an N–C bond between an imino group and an N-methyl group. Upon irradiation the reaction was accerelated. The reaction did not proceed with N- alkyl substituted anilines other than methyl.
