Demethylation of N-methyl group in N-methyl-N-arylmethyl-alpha-amino esters was accomplished by the oxidation of the amino group using the N-iodosuccinimide (NIS)/acetonitrile system followed by treatment with O-methylhydroxylamine hydrochloride. This combination of reagents could provide a complementary method to catalytic hydrogenolysis, which certainly cleaves N-arylmethyl groups, in organic synthesis. (c) 2007 Elsevier Ltd.
