Photoinduced Nickel-Catalyzed Selective N-Demethylation of Trialkylamines Using C(sp2)–Bromides as HAT Reagents

Abstract: N-Demethylation of trialkylamines is a useful transformation, but typically requires harsh reaction conditions and stepwise procedures, as well as judicious protection of labile functional groups. Herein we report a mild, catalytic approach for the demethylation of trialkylamines by utilizing photoinduced nickel catalysis wherein C(sp2)–bromides serve as hydrogen-atom transfer (HAT) reagents. This method achieves direct demethylation of trialkylamines with wide functional group compatibility, making it highly … Show more

“…Recently, the nickel-mediated photocatalysis has been demonstrated to be an efficient approach to address the challenging and previously inaccessible cross-coupling reactions . However, there is a scarcity of studies on the catalytic reactivities of photoexcited nickel complexes . In 2018, Doyle and co-workers found that photoexcitation of Ni II –aryl halide complexes resulted in the generation of long-lived excited 3 d–d state, suggesting that Ni could be utilized as an alternative metal photocatalyst (Scheme ).…”

“…[19][20][21][22] Disadvantages include the use of expensive and toxic reagents, the number of reaction steps under severe conditions, and hazardous by-products. Some recent reports use metal-catalyzed, [23] photocatalyst-free, [24] anodic oxidation [25] highlighting difficulties and revealing the search for new practical discoveries of Ndemethylation methods.…”
