Thermolysis of 3-azidoacetophenone in methanol in a sealed glass ampoule gave 6-acetyl- and 4-acetyl-3H-azepines in moderate yields, whose kinetic data a=132.6+/-1.7 kJmol-1, ΔS443= -12.1=/-4.2 JK-1mol-1> were obtained by means of HPLC.Photolysis of this azide in methanol gave the same pair of the 3H-azepines in poor yields.Thermolysis of 4-azidoacetphenone under the similar conditions afforded a moderate yield of 5-acetyl-3H-azepine.For comparison, photolyses of 4- and 2-azidoacetophenones were also studied.
