Abstract
Stable arylnitrile oxides undergo 1,3-cycloaddition to β- aminocinnamonitriles at the Câ¡N or the C=C bond, which gives rise to 3,5-disubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles or 3,5-diaryl-4-cyanoisoxazoles, respectively, by parallel reactions in different solvents. Overall kinetics were measured at temperatures in the range 50-90 °C; product selectivities were determined by HPLC rate coefficients for the parallel reactions were, thus, obtained. Rates were enhanced by increasing the solvent polarity. Hammett plots for substitution on the nitrile oxide benzene ring were V-shaped; those for substitution on the enaminonitrile benzene ring had negative p-values.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
