Abstract
SUBSTITUTED 3-amino-1: 1-diphenylpropan-1-ols (I) behave in orthodox fashion when boiled in acid solution, to give the expected substituted allylamines (II) in almost quantitative yield1. Partial de-amination to the corresponding allene occurs in some cases, for example, 3-piperidino-1: 1: 3-triphenylpropan-1-ol (III, m.p. 107°) gave dinieric 1: 1: 3-triphenylallene (IV) as well as the unsaturated amine (V, m.p. 103–104°) when boiled in a mixture of concentrated hydrochloric and acetic acids.
