Abstract

Amides of the type RNHCH (R') C, H, N= NR2 [R= alkyl C-0, aryl C= O, alkyl SOZ, aryl SOZ, H, NC= O, C6H5" C= 0,(CeH6), NC= O; R1= H, CHI, CsHj; R2= phenyl, substituted phenyl, naphthyl] undergo basic hydrolysis under mild conditions to give RNHz and R1C (= O) C6H4NHNHR2. A similar reaction occurs when the substituents are ortho to one another. No reaction takes place when the groups are in the meta position. The effects of structural ...
