Diazaxylylenes generated by 1,4-elimination of water from amino(hydroxymethyl)pyridines under flash vacuum thermolysis (FVT) conditions can be directly studied by the UV-photoelectron spectroscopy (UV-PES). The elimination of water from these compounds starts at 450°C and is completed at 500-550°C. The interpretation of UV-photoelectron spectra was supported by Density Functional Theory studies.
