Abstract:
Novel N-substituted 2,6-dialkylanilines and process for the preparation of N-substituted 2,6-dialkylanilines by reaction of 2,6-dialkylanilines with carbonyl compounds, followed by catalytic hydrogenation with hydrogen. The products are starting materials for the preparation of dyes and pesticides.
Abstract:
A novel process for the preparation of phenylpropyl halides of the formula ##STR1## by reacting the corresponding phenylpropyl halides, substituted only by R.sup.2 and R.sup.1, with an alcohol, alkyl halide or olefin; and phenylpropyl halides where R.sup.3 has certain meanings.
