General description

2-tert-Butylaniline is a sterically hindered aniline. 2-tert-Butylaniline participates in chemo- and regioselective copper-catalyzed cross-coupling reaction for the effective amination of 2-chlorobenzoic acids.

Application

2-tert-Butylaniline may be used in the preparation of 2,3-bis(2-tert-butyl­phenyl­imino)butane. It may be used in the preparation of two rotamers, anti- and syn-N,N′-bis-(2-tert-butylphenyl)naphthalene-1,4,5,8-tetracarboxylic diimides and their guest inclusion abilities were investigated.
