Abstract
Abstract Treatment of 2-bromo-N,N-dimethyl-2,2-diphenylacetamide 1 with sodium methoxide in 2,2-dimethoxypropane furnishes mixtures of the reduced product 2 and the dimer 5 . Crossing experiments have shown that 2 is not a precursor of 5 , supporting thereby the S RN 1 mechanism for the formation of both 5 and 2 .
