Abstract

The relative rates of addition of iodine isocyanate (generated in situ from iodine and silver cyanate) to unsaturated compounds was studied with 18 unsaturated compounds at a temperature range from-80 to 3", over a range of concentrations, and at various ratios of reactants. Rates of reaction decrease with decreasing temperature and concentration of unsaturated cotnpound and also when excw olefin is used. Vinyl and isopropenyl acetates ...
