N-NITROSOHYDROXYLAMINES III. REACTION OF N,O-DIBENZYL-N-NITROSOHYDROXYLAMINES WITH ACETIC ANHYDRIDE

The major path of the reaction of N,O-dibenzyl-N-nitrosohydroxylamines (3) with acetic anhydride appears to proceed by initial radical cleavage of the N-N bond with loss of nitric oxide.The formation of the main products (5) may be rationalized by subsequent transformation of the resulting hydroxylamino radicals.

THE UNUSAL REARRANGEMENT OF N-NITROSO-N,O-DIBENZYLHYDROXYLAMINES WITH ACETIC ANHYDRIDE

Treatment of N-nitroso-N,O-dibenzylhydroxylamine (2a) with acetic anhydride in benzene at reflux results in a remarkable rearrangement to 2-benzoyl-1-acetylbenzylhydrazine and it was established that it is the N-benzyl substituent of 2a that is transformed into the benzoyl group of the rearranged product (3a).
