✦ Synopsis
There are two possible limiting mechanisms by which compounds containing the carbonnitrogen double bond can thermally isomerize. One of these, proposed for the isomerization of imines2, involves a lateral in-plane shift of the group bonded to the imino nitrogen.
The transition state for this process was described as one in which the n bond remains intact and the non-bonded electron pair on nitrogen rehybridizes to a p orbital. One of the
