The disparate results in the literature regarding functionalizations with N -(benzylidene)trimethylsilylamine to form primary amine functionalized polymers are discussed; the efficiency of functionalization depends on the molecular weight of the polymeric organolithium(PLi). Efficient functionalizations are observed for PLi with n>10 000 g/mol. The poor functionalization yields using ketimines with enolizable hydrogens is explained. The use of N -trimethylsilyldiphenylcarbimide as a quantitative primary amine functionalizing reagent is described.
