Abstract

Abstract Methylation reactions occurring between trimethyl orthocarboxylates or N, N- dimethylcarboxamide dimethyl acetals and various hydroxylated heterocycles, involving a lactam-lactim tautomeric equilibrium, were investigated as an alternative to classic methylation methods. The corresponding O-methylated or N-methylated compounds were isolated in a number of instances and the reaction's regioselectivity was shown to ...
