Alkyl Nitrenes from N-Alkylbenzoquinone Imine N-Oxides

Alkyl nitrenes have been generated by photolysis of two N-t-alkylbenzoquinone imine N-oxides.These mainly abstract hydrogen to give the corresponding amines which are trapped by reaction with benzoquinone.Intramolecular hydrogen abstraction followed by cyclisation to give a pyrrolidine is a minor process in one case.Attempts to generate α-substituted benzyl nitrenes in this way led mainly to the production of substituted benzyl radicals by C-N bond cleavage of the N-benzylbenzoquinone imine N-oxides.

Nitroxides as reaction intermediates

Vinyl nitroxides 4 are obtained by oxidation of the nitrones 3, as was shown by esr studies by esr and by identification of the reaction products.The formation of 4d-f is even observed in oxidation of the hydroxylamines 1d-f, nitroxides 2d-f and nitrones
