The Beckmann rearrangement of spiroketoximes having the spiro atom alpha to the oxime carbon has been carried out under various conditions. Using thionyl chloride or phosphorus pentachloride, most yielded mixtures of the normal lactam product and the product of a “second-order" cleavage, an unsaturated nitrile. The rearrangement of spirocyclopentanone oximes in polyphosphoric acid led in highyield to bicyclic,/3-unsaturated ketones, which were shown to result from acid-catalyzed cyclization of the unsaturated nitriles. Under these conditions, spirocyclohexanone oximes yielded, besides, ß-unsaturated ketones, small amounts of lactams and larger quantities of saturated amides. Spiro-[cyclopentane-1, 2'-pseudo-indoxyl] oxime was cleaved by polyphosphoric acid to cyclopentanone and anthranilamide.Among the classes of ketoximes which undergo “abnormal’’reactions when subjected to Beckmann rearrangement conditions are those completely substituted at an-carbon atom; these oximes often cleave to unsaturated nitriles or to mixtures of olefin and nitrile 3 A striking featureof the reaction is the dependence of its course upon the particular reagent employed. a-Phenylisobutyro-phenone oxime, for example, rearranges to di-methyl phenylacetanilide with hydrogen chloride in acetic acid, but is cleaved by thionyl chloride to benzonitrile and-methylstyrene. 2j Pivalo-
