Abstract:The preparation and reactions of 4-hydroxy-l-methylisonipecotonitrile (I) arc described. The product of the pinaeo! rearrangement of 4-hydroxv-l-methyl-4-piperidyldiphenylcarbinol (V), derived from I, is shown to depend on the reaction conditions. The anomalous reaction of bromine water with l-methyI-4-piperidyIidenediphenylmethane (XII) is discussed.(1) Presented in part before the Division of Organic Chemistry at the 122nd Meeting of the American Chemical Society at Atlantic
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
