THE REACTIONS OF ACTIVE NITROGEN WITH CYCLOPROPANE, CYCLOBUTANE, AND CYCLOPENTANE

Abstract
Cyclopropane, cyclobutane, and cyclopentane in order of increasing reactivity with active nitrogen yielded hydrogen cyanide and ethylene as the major products. The relative proportions of ethylene to hydrogen cyanide increased with number of carbon atoms in the reactant and with increase of temperature.
