Cyclic carbamates as reagents for alkylamination of aromatic derivatives under friedel-crafts conditions

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/S0040-4039(00)77819-1

Aryl(ethyl-) and propylamines are obtained with good yields by a decarboxylation-alkylation process applied on aluminium trichloride-cyclic carbamate complexes. The coupling of two aromatic units is observed in the case of oxazolidinonetoluene reaction.
