An efficient and clean procedure for the preparation of alkyldiphenylmethanes and 4,4-diphenylbutylamines from their corresponding nitriles by using sodium hydroxide-polyethylene glycol reagent system in a domestic microwave oven is described. The products are isolated by simple aqueous work up in excellent yields.
