A STUDY OF THE IRRADIATION PRODUCTS OF SEVERAL NITRONES
Several N, alpha -diarylnitrones were investigated after exposure to light and in every case the first irradiation product was quite unstable, the stability varying according to substituent and solvent. The ultraviolet (uv) absorption spectra of the first irradiation products of nitrones in ethanol were very similar to those of oxaziridines. By a modified method, the first irradiation products from nitrones in ethanol contained a high percentage of active oxygen (measured by release of I/sub 2/ from KI). All the N, alpha diarylnitrones produced first irradiation products that were rearranged or hydrolyzed or both, or reacted further in the dark to yield end products that varied in amount with different solvents. The spectra of nitrone, oxaziridine, and all the products resulting from oxaziridine, are presented. (C.H.)
