Abstract
A study of the ring-opening reaction of 2,2-gem-diphenylaziridine by treating with acetic acid has been undertaken. The structure of the ring-opened product was confirmed as 1,1-diphenyl-2-aminoethyl acetate. It is most likely that the reaction proceeds through the cleavage of a bond between nitrogen and tertiary carbon atoms in the aziridine ring, followed by the formation of a carbonium ion intermediate.
2,2-gem-dephenylaziridine의 醋酸에 의한 開環反應에서 反應生成物은1,1-diphenyl-2-amino-ethyl acetate 임을 알았다. 또한 이 開環反應은 aziridine環 안에 있는 窒素原子와 tertiary炭素原子사이의 結合이 切斷되어 中間體로서 carbonium이온이 形成되는 過程을 거쳐서 進行됨을 알았다.
