GC/MS analysis was used to study the thermal stability of 2-arylspiro[3,1-benzoxazine-4,1'-cyclopentanes] and isomeric N-[2-cyclopent-1-en-1-yl)phenyl]arylamides. Thermal isomerization of the benzoxazines to give arylamides on the chromatographic column was detected. Change in the ratio between peak intensities of the diagnostic [M]+ and [M-C2H5]+ ions allows to determine the ratio between open and cyclic forms. Heating up to 250°C at atmospheric pressure or prolonged storage of the benzoxazines also leads to their isomerization to arylamides in quantitative yield.
