Abstract

A description is given of the conversion of 3-diazo-1-phthalimidobutan-2-one (la) into B-phthalimidoisobutyranilide (Ila) via the Wolff rearrangement7, in aniline solution , and further rearrangement to B -aminoisobutyric acid. The same rearrangement in (-)-a-phenylethylamine solution is also described.
