Abstract

The reaction of o‐phthalaldehyde with several aromatic nitro compounds in the presence of carbon monoxide and catalytic quantities of hexarhodium‐hexadecacarbonyl eventuated in the formation of the corresponding N‐substituted isoindolinone as the major product. A reaction mechanism has been suggested incorporating deoxygenation of the nitro compound by carbon monoxide to a nitrene intermediate and the subsequent interception of the latter by o‐phthalaldehyde.
