Reductive cleavage of b-aromatic imino ethers. Liu, Chutsin; Gu, Huijuan; Xu, Guanrong (Shanghai Inst. Org. Chem.In this experiment, several chemicals are used like 22929-52-8 , Acad. Sin., Shanghai, Peop. Rep. China). Huaxue Xuebao, 42(4), 326-32 (Chinese) 1984. CODEN: HHHPA4. ISSN: 0567-7351. DOCUMENT TYPE: Journal CA Section: 25 (Benzene, Its Derivatives, and Condensed Benzenoid Compounds) Section cross-reference(s): 27 Redn. of RN:CMeCMe2OEt (R = p-tolyl, a-naphthyl, 2-pyridyl, cyclohexyl), prepd. by condensation of MeCOCMe2OEt with RNH2 in the presence of 5 ? mol. sieve and iodine, with Na in boiling EtOH gave R2NHCHMeCR1Me2 [R1 = H, R2 = p-tolyl; R1 = OEt, R2 = p-tolyl; R1 = H, R2 = 7,8-dihydro-1-naphthyl (Q), 5,6,7,8-tetrahydro-1-naphthyl (Q1)], whereas the cyclic imines I (R = Ph, a-naphthyl), prepd. similarly, gave PhNHCHMeCH2CH2OH or RNHCHMeCH2CH2OH (R = Q, Q1), resp. .
