Reactions of 5-Methyl-6-thioxo-5,6,11,12-tetrahydrodibenzo[b,f]azocin-12-one and a Novel Rearrangement to a Hydroximino-isothrochromene
Abstract
The synthesis of dibenzazocinone 2 and several of its reactions are described, including formation of a benzylidene derivative 3, which with hydroxylamine undergoes a novel rearrangement to give the methanone 8.
