General description

N-Methyldiphenylamine is an aromatic tertiary amine. It undergoes transformation to N-methylcarbazole (C) via a photochemical reaction.

Application

N-Methyldiphenylamine may be used for the synthesis of phosphonium ion salts. It may also be used as a starting reagent for the preparation of bis(4-carboxyphenyl)-N-methylamine (H2CPMA).

A luminescent lithium metal-organic framework (MOF) is constructed from the solvothermal reaction of Li(+) and a well-designed organic ligand, bis(4-carboxyphenyl)-N-methylamine (H(2)CPMA). A Li-based MOF can detect an explosive aromatic compound containing nitro groups as an explosophore, by showing a dramatic
