Abstract
The reaction of 1-(dichloromethyl)-5-nitroisoquinoline with 2-nitropropane anion which gives 1-isopropylidenemethyl-5-nitroisoquinoline as major product is shown to proceed by the consecutive S RN1 and E RC1 mechanisms. These mechanisms are confirmed by the inhibitory effects of dioxygen, p-dinitrobenzene, cupric chloride and TEMPO.
