Cleavage of 1X-R series to form the most stable 3X-Z product, (path 2) is found the favored procedure because of delocalized negative charge on five atoms and lower steric effect in related transition state. According to IRC calculations in paths 1 and 2, C6--N1 bond is cleaved before the rate determinating step (transition state). The stability of unsaturated bicyclic diaziridines and their corresponding (Z) and (E) azomethine imides is in the following order in gas phase and chloroform, tetrahydrofuran, and acetone solvents: 3X-Z〈3X-F〈2X-Z 〈2X-E 〈 1X-R 〈 1X-S.展开更多
