Abstract
(+/-)-2,2'-Dinitro-2,2'-biaziridines were obtained by a direct aza-MIRC (Michael initiated ring closure) reaction on (E,E)-1,4-dialkyl-2,3-dinitro-1,3-butadienes under very mild conditions. The reactions occur with high stereoselectivity as shown by the enantioselective HPLC analyses performed on the crude mixtures. Ring enlargement to 3,3'-bi(1,2,4-oxadiazole) derivatives was easily obtained by a simple treatment with sodium iodide in DMSO, with an unforeseen regioselective aziridine C-C cleavage.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
