The pH of partially neutralised solutions of 2-methyl-A2-oxazoline changes with time, an initial rapid rise being followed by a slower fall; these changes are shown to be due to conversion into, first, O-acetylethanolamine, and then into N-acetylethanolamine. On the basis of the rates of the reactions involved it is concluded that 2-methyl-A2-oxazoline is not an intermediate in the conversion of 0-into N-acetylethanolamine in aqueous solution.REQUIRING, for another purpose> to know the basic strength of 2-methyl-A2-oxazoline (Ib), we attempted to determine this by the usual procedure of measuring the pH of partially neutralised aqueous solutions of the base. It was noticed that the pH of such solutions changed rapidly with time and, although pK, was satisfactorily evaluated by extrapolation of the observed pH values to zero time, the phenomenon of an acid solution that became alkaline and then acid again with the mere passage of time seemed to warrant investigation.
