N,N,-Dialkyl aromatic amines react rapidly with nitrous acid to competitively produced a nitrosamine and a nitro compound. The mechanism of nitro compound formation involves a reaction of an amine radical cation with NO2, while the nitrosamine

A general mechanism is proposed for transition metal-catalyzed oxidative Mannich reactions of N,N-dialkylanilines with tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) as the oxidant. The mechanism consists of a rate-determining single electron transfer (SET) that is uniform from 4-methoxy- to 4-cyano-N,N-dimethylanilines. The tert-butylperoxy radical is the major oxidant in the rate-determining SET step that is followed by competing backward SET and irreversible heterolytic cleavage of the carbon-hydrogen bond at the α-position to nitrogen. A second SET completes the conversion of N,N-dimethylaniline to an iminium ion that is subsequently trapped by the nucleophilic solvent or the oxidant prior to formation of the Mannich adduct. The general role of Rh2(cap) 4, RuCl2(PPh3)3, CuBr, FeCl 3, and Co(OAc)2 in N,N-dialkylaniline oxidations by T-HYDRO is to initiate the conversion of TBHP to tert-butylperoxy radicals. A second pathway, involving O2 as the oxidant, exists for copper, iron, and cobalt salts. Results from linear free-energy relationship (LFER) analyses, kinetic and product isotope effects (KIE and PIE), and radical trap experiments of N,N-dimethylaniline oxidation by T-HYDRO in the presence of transition metal catalysts are discussed. Kinetic studies of the oxidative Mannich reaction in methanol and toluene are also reported.

"Chemical Equation Presented" The reaction of the benzotriazole N-oxyl radical (BTNO) with a series of 4-X-N,N-dimethylanilines (X = CN, CF 3, CO2CH2CH3, CH3, OC6H5, OCH3) has been investigated in CH 3CN. Product analysis shows that the radical, 4-X-C6H 4N(CH3)CH2·, is first formed, which can lead to the N-demethylated product or the product of coupling with BTNO. Reaction rates were found to increase significantly by increasing the electron-donating power of the aryl substituents (p+ = -3.8). With electron-donating substituents (X = CH3, OC6H5, OCH3), no intermolecular deuterium kinetic isotope effect (DKIE) and a substantial intramolecular DKIE are observed. With electron-withdrawing substituents (X = CN, CF3, CO2CH2CH 3), substantial values of both intermolecular and intramolecular DKIEs are observed. These results can be interpreted on the basis of an electron-transfer mechanism from the N,N-dimethylanilines to the BTNO radical followed by deprotonation of the anilinium radical cation (ET-PT mechanism). By applying the Marcus equation to the kinetic data for X = CH3, OC 6H5, OCH3 (rate-determining ET), a reorganization energy for the ET reaction was determined (λ BTNO/DMA= 32.1 kcal mol- 1). From the self-exchange reorganization energy for the BTNO/BTNO- couple, a self-exchange reorganization energy value of 31.9 kcal mol-1 was calculated for the DMA·+/DMA couple.
