Abstract

Abstract The radical S RN 1 and subsequent E RC 1 reactions of p-nitrobenzylidene dibromide (2b) and bromide chloride (2c) with the lithium salt (1a) and the tetrabutylammonium salt (1b)(under phase-transfer conditions) of 2-nitropropane are discussed and compared with the reactions of the dichloride (2a). The S RN 1 and E RC 1 sequence occurs in rapid succession in the reaction of (2b), in contrast to the reactions of ( ...
