✦ Synopsis
The N-alkylation of primary nitrophenylsulfonamides followed by removal of the nitrophenylsulfonamide moiety under nucleophilic conditions to provide secondary amines has become an established literature procedure. Application of this methodology with less reactive alkylating agents can give rise to side products resulting from a nitrogen to carbon transfer of the nitrophenyl ring. This side product predominates when tetrabutylammonium hydroxide is used in place of metal carbonate bases in the Nalkylation step.

Monoalkylation of the a-amino group of or-amino acid derivatives can be facilitated using 2and 4-nitrophenylsulfonamide intermediates. The nitrophenylsulfonamides of a-amino esters can be alkylated using an equimolar amount of carbonate base and a variety of alkyl bromides. Ready removal of the nitr
