Abstract
1-t-Butyl-3-amino, 1-t-butyl-3-aminomethyl-, and 1-t-butyl-2-aminomethylazetidine were prepared by the ammonolysis of 1-t-butyl-3-azetidinyl tosylate, and by the reduction of 1-t-butyl-3-cyano, and 1-t-butyl-2-cyanoazetidine respectively. In the deamination, both of the first two azetidines gave only the corresponding alcohols, 1-t-butyl-3-azetidinol and 1-t-butyl-3-hydroxymethylazetidine, while the last one was found to afford two products, 1-t-butyl-2-hydroxymethylazetidine and 1-t-butyl-3-hydroxypyrrolidine. The deamination products were identified as the corresponding acetates.
