Abstract

Gas-phase pyrolysis of aminomethylene Meldrum’s acid derivatives gave quinolinones and/or amines depending on the ­nature of arylamino moiety. Effect of substituent on reaction rate and nature of pyrolysis products supports the suggested intramolecular nucleophilic substitution reaction via initially formed keteneamine intermediate.
