A combination of NMR, kinetic, and computational methods are used to examine reactions of lithium diethylamide in tetrahydrofuran (THF) with n-dodecyl bromide and n-octyl benzenesulfonate. The alkyl bromide undergoes competitive SN2 substitution and E2 elimination in proportions independent of all concentrations except for a minor medium effect. Rate studies show that both reactions occur via trisolvated-monomer-based transition structures. The alkyl benzenesulfonate undergoes competitive SN2 substitution (minor) and N-sulfonation (major) with N-sulfonation promoted at low THF concentrations. The SN2 substitution is shown to proceed via a disolvated monomer suggested computationally to involve a cyclic transition structure. The dominant N-sulfonation follows a disolvated-dimer-based transition structure suggested computationally to be a bicyclo[3.1.1] form. The differing THF and lithium diethylamide orders for the two reactions explain the observed concentration-dependent chemoselectivities.

Photo-induced ATC reactions of RI, CO, and amines to produce amides, were examined using ionic liquids, such as [bmim]PF6 and [bmim]NTf2, as reaction media in the presence of a catalytic amount of a Pd-carbene complex. When the primary alkyl iodide was used, the yield of the amide was lowered due to competing SN2 reactions between RI and amines, whereas the reaction of the tertiary alkyl iodides was dependent on the structure of the substrates. ATC reactions of a wide variety of secondary RI proceeded smoothly when ionic liquids were used as reaction media. The Pd-catalyst and ionic liquid could also be recycled.
Joint Synthesis of Tertiary Unsymmetrical and Symmetrical Aliphatic Amines

Tertiary unsymmetrical and symmetrical aliphatic amines were prepared by reaction of higher (C8-C16) and lower (C2-C4) aliphatic alcohols with nitriles containing the same number of carbon atoms as the lower aliphatic alcohols. Reaction conditions ensuring nearly quantitative yields of tertiary amines were determined.
