Oxidation of tertiary amines with N-chloronylon 66 (NCN) was investigated in several organic solvents. NCN was found to oxidize N,N-dimethylaniline (DMA) at room temperature to give N-methylaniline with 15–50% yield, depending on the solvents used. Oxidation of N,N-dimethylbenzylamine (DMBA) gave benzaldehyde with 15–30% yield and a small amount of N-methylbenzylamine. A mechanism was discussed. For comparison, N-chlorosuccinimide, a low molecular N-chloro-compound, was also used for oxidation of DMA and DMBA.
