Abstract

7-Acetyl-3-methyl-2, 1-benzisoxazole has been synthesized by reduction of 2, 6- diacetylnitrobenzene. While the chemical properties of the compound indicate that it undergoes valency-tautomerism, spectroscopic studies indicate that this is a relatively slow process. Comparisons with other heterocyclic systems having similar properties are noted.
