Abstract

When a tetraalkylammonium salt is treated with a base, a hydrogen atom cy to the nitrogen atom is removed to give an ammonium ylide intermediate.'Since an alkylbenzyldimethylammonium salt contains different kinds of a-hydrogen atoms, different ylides may be formed simultaneously, and they are isomerized to the tertiary amines via the Sommelet-Hauser rearrangement and/or the Stevens rearrangement, respectively. If the ...
