Abstract

The recent finding2 that benzyldimethylamine will alkylate methyl cyanoacetate and tricarbethoxymethane prompted an investigation of the reaction of this amine with the methyl esters of acids which are not readily decarboxylated. It was found that when a mixture of the methyl ester of such an acid and benzyldimethylamine is heated to a temperature close to 200'in an atmosphere of nitrogen, a gentle but steady evolution of trimethylamine occurs, ...
