DECOMPOSITION OF 1-AZIDO-1,3-BUTADIENES

Abstract
The photolysis and the thermolysis of the title compounds (I) were studied. The photolysis of (I) at low temperature gave 3-alkenyl-1-azirine (II) but at room temperature gave (II), pyrrole (III) or butenonitrile (IV) depending on the nature of the substituents of (I). The thermolysis of (I) gave (III), (IV) or 2H-pyrrole (V).
