1,2,3-Benzotriazin-4-ones and related systems. Part II. Thermolytic decomposition of substituted 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-ones and isatoic anhydrides

Several nuclear-substituted 1,2,3-benzotriazin-4-ones have been thermolysed in an inert solvent. In each case the major identifiable product proved to be a 2-(o-aminophenyl)-3,1-benzoxazin-4-one. Nuclear-substituted isatoic anhydrides on thermolysis behaved similarly.
