title: Reaction of diaryl-1,2-diones with triphenylphosphine and diethyl azodicarboxylate leading to N,N-dicarboethoxy monohydrazones via a novel rearrangement.
abstract: [reaction: see text]. A mechanistically novel reaction of diaryl-1,2-diones with diethyl azodicarboxylate and triphenylphosphine to afford N,N-dicarboethoxy monohydrazones is described. The reaction proceeds via a nitrogen to nitrogen migration of a carboethoxy group.
