THE MECHANISM OF THE REACTION OF 2-BROMO-N,N-DIMETHYL-2,2-DIPHENYLACETAMIDE AND SODIUM METHOXIDE IN 2,2-DIMETHOXYPROPANE. A METHOD FOR ESTABLISHING THE RADICAL-ANION RADICAL CHAIN MECHANISM

Thermolysis of N,N-dimethyl-2,2-diphenyl-2-phenylazoacetamide (1f) in the presence of sodium methoxide in 2,2-dimethoxypropane furnishes N,N-dimethyl-2,2-diphenylacetamide (1e), the dimeric product 3 and 2-hydroxymethyl-2,2-diphenylacetamide (1g).An analysis of this result leads to the conclusion that the title reaction (which yields compounds 1e and 3) is a radical-anion radical chain process.
