Application

N-Methylaniline is a general reagent used:
  • In the preparation of phosphoramidite ligands for the rhodium-catalyzed asymmetric hydroboration.
  • As a formylating reagent in the C3-selective formylation of indoles.
  • In the synthesis of a rhodol-based fluorescent probe, HKGreen-3, for sensing peroxynitrite.
  • As a key starting material in the synthesis of AKT (protein kinase B) inhibitor-IV.

N-Methylanilines are readily synthesized in high yields through the copper(II)-promoted coupling of anilines and methylboronic acid. This method represents a new approach for the selective monomethylation of anilines, and it is the first reported example of a Chan-Lam coupling involving
