The behaviour of quaternary salts under reduced pressure. Part I. Improvement in yield during Hofmann elimination

Abstract

Improved olefin yields are invariably obtained by carrying out Hofmann eliminations under reduced pressure (oil pump) at lower temperatures than normally required. Under optimum conditions, 75% elimination is obtained from NN-dimethyl-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinolinium hydroxide. The convenience of the procedure is illustrated by the ready preparation of cyclopropene.
