On gas phase thermolysis 4-alkyl-2-oxazolin-5-ones 1 undergo CO elimination to yield N-acylimines 2, which rearrange into more stable enamides 3 if α-hydrogens are present.N-Acylimines (e.g. 2a) may be isolated in cases where the rearrangement is prevented by a quarternary C-atom.The 4,4-dialkylsubstituted oxazolinone 1o yields mixtures of N-acylimine 2o and enamide 3o, the amount of the latter increasing at higher pyrolysis temperatures.
