General Description

N,N-Dimethylbenzamide is a hydrotropic agent and its ability to solubilize drugs with low aqueous solubility has been investigated. It reacts with PhLnI complexes (Ln-Eu, Sm, Yb) to yield benzophenone in good yields. Deuterium exchange labelling experimets on N,N-dimethylbenzamide using [IrH₂(Me₂CO)₂(PPh₃)₂]BF₄ as catalyst and deuterium gas as the source of isotope has been conducted.
