Microwave assisted, highly efficient solid state N- and S-alkylation

Article abstract of DOI:10.1080/00397919908086007

Secondary amines and thiophenols were alkylated with alkyl and benzyl halides rapidly on alumina supported potassium carbonate under solvent-free conditions using microwaves. Equimolar amounts of the secondary amine/thiophenol and alkyl halide were used. The procedure neither required any strong base nor a PTC Aniline was also monobenzylated with benzylchloride. Separation of the products from the reactants was very simple by using a nonpolar solvent for desorption.
