Abstract

A synthetic methodology for the specific conversion of primary aromatic amines into their N- monomethyl derivatives under very mild conditions is presented. Anilines are treated with 4- nitrobenzenesulfonyl (nosyl) chloride to generate the corresponding sulfonamides 2 in high yields. The subsequent N-methylation reaction of the sulfonamides 2 with a solution of diazomethane is rapid and quantitative. Removal of the nosyl protecting group is readily ...
