53. All hitherto isolated acyclic isoimides (O-acyl isoamides, O-acyl imidates, imino anhydrides) adopt the (Z) configuration of the C=N group and are stabilised by special groups (-NRAr, -OR) at the nitrogen atom that retard the (Z) → (E) diastereomerisation, which is the rate-limiting step of the Mumm rearrangement in these cases: I.
