Abstract

and-amines7 suggested that the tert-butyl group might be particularly useful in this regard. We now report on the nitrolysis of N-tert-butylamines containing (mostly nitroalkyl) substituents of varying electron demand. The amines 1-3 used as model compounds in the present work were obtained by the Mannich condensation of tert-butylamine with the appropriate nitroalkanes (eq 1-3),
