Abstract
Heating cyclohexanespiro-2-oxazolidine at 160–200°C in the presence of protic acids results in its decomposition to giveN-(2-hydroxyethyl)cyclohexylamine,N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-4,5,6,7-tetrahydroindole, and 2-cyclohexylidenecyclohexanone. The possible pathways leading to these compounds are discussed.
