Abstract

The photochemical and thermal decomposition of 3-chloro-3-benzyldiazirine have been studied in different reaction conditions. The decomposition gives rise to benzylchlorocarbene which can rearrange to E and Z chlorostyrene and/or react with the environment. In the presence of acetic acid the main product is 1-chloro-2-phenylethyl acetate. Experiments with acetic acid-d4 showed that some of the chlorostyrene is formed ...
