Reduction et photoreduction de derives de l'acide carbonique influence de l'hexamethylphosphorotriamide

Photoreduction and reduction of carbonic acid derivatives in HMPT have been compared.The highest yield of alkane was obtained from N,N-dimethylthiocarbamates either by the photochemical method or by reduction with a dissolved metal.Competitive reactions have been characterized: - during the photoreduction not only the alkane but products of a photo-Fries rearrangement and products of a homolytic cleavage were detected; - basic reactions can compete with the reduction of carbonic acid derivatives by sodium in HMPT.
