Ultraviolet irradiation of the title compound I in the presence of butylamine gave predominantly products of nucleophilic photosubstitution by the amine, i.e., nitroanilines IIa and IIb. Besides, small amounts of products of hydrolysis (phenol III) and reductive coupling (azoxybenzene IV) were also formed. Comparison of the overall photolysis rate of I with that of 3,4-dimethoxy-1-nitrobenzene (V) indicates a minor loss of reactivity, most probably due to some deviation from coplanarity of the activating nitro group and the aromatic ring.

AbstractA method for dirhodium-catalyzed C(sp3)–H amidation of N,N-dimethylanilines was developed. Chemoselective C(sp3)–H amidation of N-methyl group proceeded exclusively in the presence of C(sp2)–H bonds of the electron-rich aromatic ring. Site-selective C(sp3)–H amidation proceeded exclusively at the N-methyl group of N-methyl-N-alkylaniline derivatives with secondary, tertiary, and benzylic C(sp3)–H bonds α to a nitrogen atom.

On treatment with m-chloroperbenzoic acid, dihydroeugenol methyl ether and marchantin A trimethyl ether afford muconic acid ester derivatives by oxidation of the aromatic ring as well as hydroxylated derivatives; the m-chlorobenzoate of the dihydroeugenol derivative is also observed for the former.

An efficient synthetic route to highly substituted dihydroquinolines and dihydronaphthyridines has been developed using a domino reaction of Morita-Baylis-Hillman (MBH) acetates with primary aliphatic and aromatic amines in DMF at 50–90 °C. The MBH substrates incorporate a side chain acetate positioned adjacent to an acrylate or acrylonitrile aza-Michael acceptor as well as an aromatic ring activated toward SNAr ring closure. A control experiment established that the initial reaction was an SN2′-type displacement of the side chain acetate by the amine to generate the alkene product with the added nitrogen nucleophile positioned trans to the SNAr aromatic ring acceptor. Thus, equilibration of the initial alkene geometry is required prior to cyclization. A further double bond migration was observed for several reactions targeting dihydronaphthyridines from substrates with a side chain acrylonitrile moiety. MBH acetates incorporating a 2,5-difluorophenyl moiety were found to have dual reactivity in these annulations. In the absence of O2, the expected dihydroquinolines were formed, while in the presence of O2, quinolones were produced. All of the products were isolated in good to excellent yields (72–93%). Numerous cases (42) are reported, and mechanisms are discussed.

In the title compound, C9H13N2O+·I−, the dihedral angle between the aromatic ring and the N-acetyl group is 73.93 (8)°. In the crystal structure, the cation and anion interact by way of an N—H...I hydrogen bond.
