The efficiency of W7 Raney nickel catalysts degassed between 30 and 400�C in the preparation of 2,2'-bipyridyl has been examined. The highest activities are observed with catalysts which have been degassed at 200�C, and these catalysts arc up to 20% more efficient than catalysts previously used and degassed at 100�C. The results obtained are compared with published data concerning the hydrogen contents of degassed Raney nickel catalysts (Kokes and Emmett 1959, 1960). This shows that catalysts which are virtually free of hydrogen are only 25% less efficient than catalysts degassed at l00�C (containing 65 to 70% of their original hydrogen). Because of this finding a new mechanism is proposed in which the adsorbed pyridine is activated by the transfer of an electron from the catalyst. On stereochemical grounds it is proposed that meso-2,2'-dihydro-2,2'-bipyridyl with axially disposed hydrogen atoms at the 2,2'-positions and bonded via both nitrogen atoms to one nickel atom is the energetically most favoured intermediate.

An interesting rearrangement has been observed in the mass spectra of a series of N-benzoyl-2-hydroxyalkylamines. The hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group is transferred to the N-benzoyl portion of the molecular ion and the bond between positions 1 and 2 in the N-alkyl group is cleaved. A rearrangement ion, observed at m/e 135, is formed along with a neutral aldehyde or ketone. When the hydroxylic hydrogen is replaced by a trimethylsilyl substituent, the latter group is transferred with comparable efficiency. Differences in the relative importance of this rearrangement in the mass spectra of a series of related compounds with decreasing substitution at position 2, have been explained by differences in the stabilities of the neutral molecules formed along with m/e 135 and by the occurrence of a double hydrogen rearrangement which competes if hydrogen atoms are present in a relationship gamma and delta to the carbonyl group.
