Abstract

Rearrangement experiments and energy calculations by the CNDO/2 and extende Hückel methods indicate that ring expansion and ring contraction in aromatic carbenes and nitrnes can be one‐step processes which are governed by the stabilities of the primary products and the energies of the reactants.

## Abstract The ring expansion, phenylnitrene (**1**) → azepinylidene (**3**) has been investigated using the CNDO/2 and Extended __Hückel__ method. Both methods predict that the nitrene‐nitrogen of **1** is moving out of the molecular plane on the path of minimum energy. Whether an intermediate **
