The Hofmann rearrangement (Hofmann degradation) is the organic reaction of a primary amide to a primary amine with one less carbon atom. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The reaction involves oxidation of the nitrogen followed by rearrangement of the carbonyl and nitrogen to give an isocyanate intermediate.
The Hofmann rearrangement is a decarbonylation reaction whereby an amide is converted to an amine by way of an isocyanate intermediate. It is usually carried out under strongly basic conditions. It is usually carried out under strongly basic conditions.
When N-chloroamine 56 was treated with sulfuric acid and heat, 2-adamantanone was formed, but photolysis of 56 in the sulfuric acid-acetic acid mixture, using a low-pressure mercury lamp at 25 °C for 1-hour gave a good yield (85%) of the desired product 57. The cyclization of 57 presented considerable difficulties, but it was finally achieved ...
The reaction mechanism is that of the related Hofmann degradation. [2] Weermann degradation 1st unsattuered. At first the carbonic acid amide (1) reacts with the sodium hypochlorite. After separate water and chloride an amine with a free bond is built 2. The intermediate (3) is generated by rearrangement. At this point two different mechanisms ...
The Hofmann–Martius rearrangement in organic chemistry is a rearrangement reaction converting an N-alkylated aniline to the corresponding ortho and / or para aryl-alkylated aniline. The reaction requires heat, and the catalyst is an acid like hydrochloric acid .
The formation of the quinoline product is influenced by the interaction of both steric and electronic effects.In a recent study, Sloop [8] investigated how substituents would influence the regioselectivity of the product as well as the rate of reaction during the rate-determining step in a modified Combes pathway, which produced trifluoromethylquinoline as the product.
This organic reaction is closely related to the Hofmann elimination, but the base is a part of the leaving group. Sulfoxides can undergo an essentially identical reaction to produce sulfenic acids, which is important in the antioxidant chemistry of garlic and other alliums. Selenoxides likewise undergo selenoxide eliminations.
Reaction mechanism for the amine formation from a carboxylic acid via Schmidt reaction. In the reaction mechanism for the Schmidt reaction of ketones , the carbonyl group is activated by protonation for nucleophilic addition by the azide, forming azidohydrin 3 , which loses water in an elimination reaction to diazoiminium 5.
