Application

N-Methyl-phenethylamine can be used as a reactant:
  • To synthesize N-methyl-phenethylamine based tertiary amines by reacting with different alkyl halides in the presence of triphenylphosphine (TPP) and diisopropylazocarboxylate (DIAD) via N-alkylation reaction.
  • To fabricate photochemically stable, super-sensitive, and highly selective fluorescent film for the detection of N-methamphetamine (an illicit drug).
  • To prepare biologically active squaric acid N-hydroxylamide amide derivatives.

A novel chiral stationary phase (CSP) for HPLC was prepared by bonding (R)-1-phenyl-2-(4-methylphenyl)ethylamine amide derivative of (S)-valine to aminopropyl silica gel through a 2-amino-3,5-dinitro-1-carboxamido-benzene unit. The CSP was used for the separation of some amino acid derivatives and pyrethroid insecticides
