A highly selective sp3 C-N cleavage of tertiary anilines was achieved using the TBN/TEMPO catalyst system. When N,N-diaklylanilines (alkyl, benzyl) were employed, the N-CH3 bond was selectively cleaved via radical C-H activation. Moreover, when the allyl group was installed, totally reverse selectivity was observed. It is worth noting that the solvent effect is also crucial to obtain high reaction efficiency and selectivity.
