The reaction of 5 H ‐dibenz[ b,f ]azepine with t ‐butyl hypochlorite and this same reaction in the presence of silver(I) were studied in an attempt to generate dibenz[ b,f ]azatropylium, an aromatic nitrenium ion. Analysis of the product mixture from this reaction mitigate against formation of this ion. An alternate mechanism is presented.
