- Pyrolysis of 1-substituted pyrazoles and chloroform at 550°C: Formation of α-carboline from 1-benzylpyrazoles
-
Pyrolysis of 13CH3 labelled 1-methylpyrazole 8 with chloroform at 550°C in a continuous flow reactor yields unlabelled 2-chloropyrimidine 9 and 2-cyanopyrrole 10 labelled at the cyano group. However, pyrolysis of 1-benzylpyrazole 14 with chloroform under similar conditions gives 9,2-phenylpyrimidine 13 and, as the major product, α-carboline 15. Pyrolysis of several substituted 1-(arylmethyl)pyrazoles and the use of 13C and 15N labelled compounds provides direct evidence by which the positions of 7 atoms of 1-benzylpyrazole can be located in the α-carboline. These data support the mechanisms suggested for the formation of 9, 10, and 15.

- Reactions of Halogenomethanes in the Vapour Phase. Part 5. The Reactions of Imidazolines, Anils, and 1-Methylimidazole with Chloroform at 550 deg C, and a Comparison with their Liquid-Phase Reactions with Trichloroacetate Ion or Hexachloroacetone and Base
-
The vapor-phase reactions of imidazolines and anils with chloroform at 550 deg C are compared with their liquid-phase reactions in the presence of hexachloroacetone and base or upon thermolysis with trichloroacetate ion.In the vapour-phase reactions imidazolines, unlike imidazoles, gave non-chlorinated pyrimidines, and 1-methyl-imidazole gave 2-cyanopyrrole and the four 3-chlorocyanopyridines.
