We present a novel, efficient, and regioselective method for the rhodium-catalyzed direct C-H ortho-halogenation of anilines that involves a removable N-nitroso directing group. This method featured mild reaction conditions, wide substrate scope, good functional group tolerance and satisfactory yields. To maintain the high ortho-regioselectivity and conversion, increasing the steric hindrance of the solvent was critical. Preliminary mechanistic studies suggest that C-H activation may be involved in the rate-determining step.

N,N-Dialkyl aromatic amines with a variety of ring substituents are N-dealkylated and N-nitrosated efficiently by n-butyl nitrite/ammonium chloride/water at reflux temperature.Ring nitrosation was never observed, but minor amounts of m- and p-nitro amines and/or nitrosamines were formed in some cases.Ring nitration is rather a reaction of the initial substrate than a process occurring on formed nitrosamines.The leaving propensities of the initial N-substituents to yield nitrosamines were in the order benzyl >> methyl >> alkyl.Key Words: Nitrosamines; N-Dealkylation; N-Nitrosation; C-Nitration; Alkyl nitrite.

For both N-methyl-N-nitrosoaniline and N-nitrosodiphenylamine, the catalytic effect of halide ion, thiocyanate ion, and thiourea in the denitrosation reaction in acid solution disappears at high nucleophile concentrations.This suggests a change to an earlier rate-limiting step.The data, including the variation of rate constant with acidity, are quantitatively in accord with a reaction mechanism involving protonation of the nitosamine followed by nucleophilic attack, either stage being rate limiting, depending on the reactivity and concentration of the nucleophile.The kinetic solvent isotope effect kH2O/kD2O decreases from 1.59 at 0.43M-thiourea to 0.71 at 0.015M-thiourea, which is consistent with a change from general acid catalysis at high to specific hydrogen ion catalysis at low .Substituent effects at the amino-nitrogen atom and also in the 4-position of a phenyl substituent are very amall, the largest effect being a three-fold reduction in rate constant effected by a 4-NO2 group.These results are in accord with the known dipolar nature of nitrosamines.There is a close analogy between this system and the acid-catalysed cleavage reaction of carbamate derivatives.A similar mechanism is proposed involving a pre-association of the reactants forming a hydrogen-bonded intermediate.
