Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The azacycloalkanes HNCH2(CH2)nCH2CH2 (n=1–3), on treatment with the Na2S2O8-NaCN-NaOH system, undergo the competing reactions of N-cyanation to give the ureas, C-cyanation to give 2-cyanoazacycloalkanes, and β-fragmentation to give N-cyanomethyl- and N-formylazacycloalkanes. The relative proportions of these three competing reactions depend on the size of the ring.

  2. 2.

    Oxidative β-fragmentation of azacycloalkanes also occurs in the K3Fe(CN)6-NaOH and Na2S2O8-AgNO3-NaOH systems.
