Context and methodology
In this Publication, we describe the use of phenyl trimethylammonium iodide (PhMe3NI) as an alternative methylating agent for introducing a CH3 group in α-position to a carbonyl group. Compared to conventional methylating agents, quaternary ammonium salts have the advantages of being nonvolatile, noncancerogenic, and easy-to-handle solids. This regioselective method is characterized by ease of operational setup, use of anisole as green solvent, and yields up to 85%.
The publication and its Supporting Information can be found as open-access files on the publisher's website (see DOI above).
All detailed files containing the analytical raw data, for all compounds given in the Supporting Information of the manuscript are uploaded. An additional Word file named J. Org. Chem. 2022, 87, 6, 4305-4315_coumpound number list.pdf is uploaded, that should clearly link the compound number given in the paper to the respective entry in the ELN (jotempl) and the respective analytical data files.
Technical details
The files uploded contain the FIDs of NMR spectra recorded by an in-house Bruker Spectrometer. A software to display NMR-spectra is needed, such as MestreNova or Topspin.
HRMS data is uploaded too and has to be processed via MassHunter software.
