Abstract

The solvolysis of hydrazonyl bromides in alcohols (methanol, ethanol, or propanol) gave the equivalent alkyl hydrazonates. The best results were obtained by use of alcohols buffered with sodium acetate. The alkyl hydrazonates were found to be more stable than the analogous alkyl imidates and strong acid was required to cleave them. An attempt to effect a Chapman rearrangement of these materials was unsuccessful.
