β¦ Synopsis
N-Alkyl 5-spirocyclopropaneisoxazolidines rearrange to tetrahydropyridone derivatives by heating. The presence of a phcnyl ring on thΒ’ nitrogen atom significantly reduces thΒ’ rearrangement temperature. This effect is enhanced by electrondonating substitucnts and reduced by electron-withdrawing substituents on the phenyl ring.

Attempted N-alkylation of 3-(2,4,6-trichlorophenoxyacetamido) pyridine, with TDA-1 catalysis, yielded surprisingly N-alkylated 3-(2,4,6-trichLorophenyLamino)pyridines through a Smiles rearrangement.

The photochemical behaviour of 2-methyl-5-nitro-I H-imidazoles 1 in water-containing solutions has been studied. In a first reaction step, the photorearrangement of 1 yields 2-methyl-2-imidazoline-4,5-dione-4-oximes 2. Hydrolysis of 2 and subsequent elimination of water from a supposed intermediate
