Cationic Carbon to Nitrogen Rearrangements in the Reactions of N-(Sulfonyloxy)amines with Aldehydes

A series of aromatic and aliphatic aldehydes was reacted with N-((p-nitrobenzenesulfonyl)oxy)methylamine in chloroform.Products resulting from both carbon migration and hydride migration to nitrogen were isolated.The ratios of carbon to hydride migration products were used to clarify the reaction mechanism.The results support a two-step process in which cationic carbon to nitrogen rearrangements is rate determining.

Direct vs. Indirect Mechanisms in Organic Electrochemistry. Estimates of Activation Energies for Hydrogen Atom Transfer Processes of Relevance in Indirect Mechanisms Using the Bond Energy-Bond Order (BEBO) and Equibonding Methods

Activation energies for a number of hydrogen abstraction reactions of interest in mechanistic organic electrochemistry have been calculated using the bond energy-bond-order (BEBO) and equibonding method.The main emphasis has been put on processes with bearing on the problem of deciding between direct and indirect mechanisms in anodic oxidation, viz. acyloxylation, hydroxylation, methoxylation, nitrooxylation, cyanation, carbomethoxylation and azidation.The results indicate that indirect mechanisms might play a more important role than presently assumed.
