. Can. J. Chem. 55,3596 (1977). The thermal decomposition of phenyl-n-butyldiazirine and of phenylmethyldiazirine in DMSO and in HOAc have been investigated over the temperature range 80-130°C. The intermediate diazo compounds, 1-phenyl-1-diazopentane and 1-phenyldiazoethane respectively have been detected and isolated. The decomposition of phenyl-n-butyldiazirine and the subsequent decomposition of its product, 1-phenyl-1-diazopentane, are an illustration of consecutive reactions. The kinetic parameters for the isomerization and decomposition reactions have been determined. The isomerization of phenylmethyldiazirine to 1-phenyldiazoethane is first order and probably unimolecular but the kinetics for the subsequent reactions of 1-phenyldiazoethane are complicated by several competing rate processes. Chem. 55,3596 (1977). On ttudie la dtcomposition thermique entre 80 et 130°C du phtnyl-3 n-butyl-3 diazirine et du phenyl-3 mtthyl-3 diazirine dans le DMSO et I'acide acttique. Les composts diazo intermtdiaires sont respectivemei~t le phtnyl-1 diazo-l pentane et le phenyl-1 diazo-1 tthane. Ces derniers ont t t t dktectts et isolts. La dtcomposition du phtnyl-3 n-butyl-3 diazirine et la dtcomposition ulttrieure de son intermtdiaire le phtnyl-1 diazo-1 pentane sont un bon exemple de rtactions successives. On determine les paramktres cinttiques pour les rtactions d'isomtrisation et de decomposition. L'isomtrisation du phtnyl-3 methyl-3 diazirine en phtnyl-1 diazo-1 tthane est d'ordre 1 et probablement unimoltculaire, mais les cinttiques des rtactions ulttrieures du phenyl-1 diazo-1 tthane sont compliqutes par plusieurs processus qui entrent en compttition.[Traduit par le journal]
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.
