O-Benzoyl-N-(p-toluenesulfonyl)arylhydroxylamines (I) were found to rearrange thermally giving o-acyloxy-p-toluenesulfonanilides (II) in quantitative yields. An intramolecular concerted cyclic process has been suggested for the rearrangement on the basis of 18O tracer study. The solvent and the substituent effects on the mechanism of this novel 1,3-acyloxy migration were also examined.
