반응 단계

A mixture of 1-chloro-2,4-dimethylbenzene (1687 mg, 12 mmol), isobutylamine (1755 mg, 24.00 mmol), and Caddick catalyst (140 mg, 0.238 mmol) was treated with lithium hexamethyl disilizide in tetrahydrofuran (1 M LHMDS in THF, 15 mL, 15.00 mmol) under nitrogen. The reaction mixture was heated to 70° C. for 45 minutes in a septum-sealed vessel. The cooled mixture was concentrated in vacuo and the residue was partitioned between aqueous citric acid (50 mL) and tert butyl methyl ether (TBME) (2×50 mL). The organic phase was treated with dried MgSO4, the solid removed by filtration and the organic phase was concentrated in vacuo to give (2,4-dimethylphenyl)(2-methylpropyl)amine (2.05 g, 11.56 mmol) as an orange oil. LCMS [LCMS1] Rt 1.03 min, m/z (ES+) 178 (M+H).
