Abstract

Abstract Flash vacuum Pyrolysis (FVP) of primary N-alkoxyphthalimides at 400-500 o C and 0.02 Torr gave functionally substituted aldehydes. A mechanism of this pyrolytic transformation was proposed based on the kinetic data and product analysis. Keywords: FVP, N-alkoxyphthalimides, aldehydes, kinetics, reaction mechanism
