Electrochemical Amination of Less-Activated Alkylated Arenes Using Boron-Doped Diamond Anodes

The anodic C-H amination of aromatic compounds is a powerful and versatile method for the synthesis of aniline derivatives. By using boron-doped diamond (BDD) anodes, a method initially described by Yoshida et al. for electron-rich arenes was expanded to less-activated aromatic systems e.g., simple alkylated benzene derivatives. Anodes based on sp3 carbon seem to be the key for the electrochemical amination reaction. The corresponding primary anilines are obtained in good yields. Despite the cationic intermediates of the electrolytic reaction tert-butyl moieties are tolerated.

Chemical process

Aromatic amines (e.g., aniline) are selectively alkylated in an ortho nuclear position by reaction with an olefin (e.g., ethylene) in the presence of an aluminum anilide catalyst. Hydrogen halides (e.g., HCl) are added to increase the reaction rate.
