On the Reaction Products of Some Aldoses with Secondary Aliphatic Aromatic Amines

Abstract

Reactions of L-arabinose, D-xylose. D-galactose and D-glucose with N-methylaniline and its p-methyl and p-methoxy derivatives were studied in methanol, in the presence and absence of an acidic catalyst, by employing the thin-layer chromatographic technique. Appropriate N-aryl- N-methyl-N-glycopyranosylamines found in the products underwent rapid transformations in the reaction medium.
