Abstract

Reaction of 0-methyl benzohydroxamates 2a-c with sec-butyllithium in the presence of TMEDA at-40" C regiospecifically generates the highly reactive N, ortho-dilithiated species (eg 3). These dilithio species react avidly with a wide spectrum of electrophilic reagents, including alkyl halides, giving adducts which on reduction with Tic13 are converted into ortho-substituted primary benzamides in excellent yields. Ortho lithiation of 0-methyl ...
