Abstract

AbstractThe only pathway postulated in the literature for the isomerization of aziridinone (Ia) to iminooxirane (IIIa) involves a planar, open‐chain, dipolar intermediate (IIa); however, INDO calculations suggest a possible alternative pathway in which an in‐plane bending of the oxygen atom towards the alkyl carbon atom occurs rather than a stretching of the alkyl‐nitrogen bond. INDO calculations also suggest that the unknown compound IIIa has the same degree of stability as Ia.
