Abstract: | The photochemical and thermal decomposition of 3-chloro-3-benzyldiazirine have been studied in different reaction conditions. The decomposition gives rise to benzylchlorocarbene which can rearrange to E and Z chlorostyrene and/or react with the environment. In the presence of acetic acid the main product is 1-chloro-2-phenylethyl acetate. Experiments with acetic acid-d4 showed that some of the chlorostyrene is formed from the carbocation; other experiments conducted with tetramethylethylene as a carbene trapping agent show that the carbene is formed even in the presence of acetic acid. |
