Without heat supply, AIC13 and 3-substituted 1-acyl-2-phenylaziridines la,b, and 2b in benzene provided the respective Friedel-Crufts products 3a,b, and 4b (acylated 1 -substituted 2,2-diphenylethylamines) which in part were further converted to 1,1,2.2-tetraphenylethane (5). Oxazolines 6a,b, and 7b were also found. It is shown by means of 2,4,5-triphenyloxazoline 6b that oxazolines are intermediates for 3.4, and 5. The uncommon heterolysis of these particular oxazolines is discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
