Abstract: An investigation has shown that 2 tosylaminomethylaniline plays a dual role in the oxidative process of methanol to formaldehyde acting as N-donor ligand and nucleophile, which leads to 3-tosyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinazoline (1). This was characterized by using both spectroscopic and X-ray diffraction techniques.
