Abstract

Abstract A new route to aromatic ketenimines is described. The reaction of diphenylmethylenearylamines with chloroform/t-butoxide gave 1,3,3-triaryl-2,2-dichloroaziridines which could be pyrolytically converted to N-aryl-α-chlorodiphenylacetimidoyl chloride. When the 2,2-dichloroaziridines were treated with excess sodium iodide in acetone, aromatic ketenimines were obtained in excellent yields.
