Abstract

An efficient, simple and green procedure for N-alkylation of azaheterocycles by quaternary ammonium salts in the presence of K2CO3 under microwave irradiation is described. Using this method, N-alkyl derivatives of azaheterocycles are obtained in good to excellent yields and short reaction times.
