Addition of ethylene to the carbanions formed by the metallation of the lithium salts of di- and trimethylphenols by the strongly basic system, n-BuLi-LiK(OCH2CH2NMe2)2 provides a useful synthetic route to a range of alkylphenols. The ease of alkylation of the methyl groups decreases in the order ortho>meta>para while the inclusion of Mg(OCH2CH2OEt)2 in the catalyst restricts alkylation to the methyl groups ortho to the hydroxy group. Dialkylation occurs only at the ortho-methyl groups and only if the adjacent meta-position is unsubstituted. The potential of these products for the synthesis of sterically hindered ligands is outlined.
Nucleophilic Displacement with Heterocycles as Leaving Groups. Part 16. Reactions of Secondary Alkyl Primary Amines with 5,6,8,9-Tetrahydro-7-phenyldibenzoxanthylium Trifluoromethanesulphonate to give Intermediates Solvolysing without Rearrangement

Representative secondary alkyl primary amines R1R2CHNH2 react with the title pyrylium cation in acetic acid, alcohols, phenols, and NN-dimethylaniline acting as nucleophilic solvents to give O- and C-(secondary alkyl) products.Absence of carbenium ion rearrangements is consistent with reaction via intimate ion-molecule pairs formed rapidly from the corresponding pyridinium cations.
