Abstract
Decomposition of α-aminopropiophenones, possessing a hydroxyl or methoxyl group in the para position of phenyl ring, with acetic acid afforded a mixture of arylacetylcarbinols (I) and aroylmethylcarbinols (II). This is due to the rearrangement of (I) during the reaction to a more stable (II). In a similar manner, benzoin and benzylmethylamine were obtained from α-benzylmethylaminodesoxybenzoin.
