Abstract

The synthesis of a new sterically highly hindered 7‐membered alkoxyamine, 2,2,7,7‐tetraethyl‐1‐(1‐phenylethoxy)‐1,4‐diazepan‐5‐one (4), starting from known 2,2,6,6‐tetraethyl‐1‐(1‐phenylethoxy)piperidin‐4‐one (3) via a Beckmann‐type rearrangement is presented. It is shown that ring‐enlargement by insertion of an NH moiety in going from 3 to 4 leads to a more efficient regulator for nitroxide‐mediated controlled living radical styrene (= ethenylbenzene) and butyl acrylate (= butyl prop‐2‐enoate) polymerization. In addition to the polymerization experiments, kinetic data on the reversible CO bond homolysis of alkoxyamines 3 and 4 are presented.
