Abstract

Abstract: Carbethoxynitrene inserts into the CH bonds of 3-methylhexane with a selectivity that does not change over a concentration range from 100 to 1.2 mol% of the hydrocarbon. The selectivity is also unaffected by the presence of a triplet nitrene trap, a-methylstyrene, and by using a heavy atom solvent, dibromomethane, instead of dichloromethane. The insertion into the tertiary CH bond of optically active 3-methylhexane proceeds with 100% ...
