Abstract

However, it was not until recently4t5 that Roberts, et al., elegantly demonstrated that the reactions of halobenzenes with alkali amides in liquid ammonia probably proceed by an elimination-addition mechanism which involves the transitory existence of an electrically neutral benzyne intermediate I. Thus, these workers found that the reactions of chloro-and iodobenzene-l-14C gave essentially equal amounts of aniline-lJ4C and aniline-
