Abstract

To the extent that the'(ionic" nitrides contain the Na ion,'they would be expected to react with a variety of organic compounds, showing strong basic, nucleophilic, and reducing properties. Early investigators, however, reported that no reaction occurs with alkyl halidesl5 acid chlorides,'and other compound^.^^^^^ Nitrides with acid anhydrides have been reported to give nitriles2 or imides. s We now report several additional reactions of ionic ...
