Abstract
Flash vacuum pyrolysis of 2-aroyl-3-phenylisoxazol-5 (2H)-ones leads to good yields of 2- aryl-4-phenyloxazoles, and smaller quantities of 2-aryl-5-phenyloxazoles and 5-aryl-2- phenyloxazoles. The mechanism of formation of the 2, 5-disubstituted products has been investigated by 13C and substituent labelling, and a non-statistical breakdown of a symmetrical intermediate is invoked to rationalise the product formation.
