Microwave-assisted aminomethylation of electron-rich compounds under solvent-free condition

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397910008087294

Electron-rich aromatic compounds react with formaldehyde and a secondary amine under solvent-free condition, in the presence of acidic alumina in a commercial microwave oven or at room temperature to produce aminomethylated products in good to excellent yields.
