Ionic liquids can effectively accelerate slow N-benzylation reactions utilizing dibenzyl carbonate as an alkylating reagent. Dibenzyl carbonate (DBzlC) has been used to benzylate phenylacetonitrile, benzyl phenylacetate and phenol. Selective N, N-dibenzylation of primary aliphatic amines was carried with dibenzyl carbonate in the presence of phosphonium salts.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
