Nitrenium Ions. Part 3.1 Acid-catalyzed Reactions of 2-tert-Butylindole with Nitrosoarenes. Crystal Structures of 2-tert-Butyl-3-p-tolylimino-3H-indole and 3-tert-Butyl-3-p-tolylamino-1,3-dihydroindol-2-one†
Abstract
In the presence of acids nitrosoarenes form nitrenium ions which react with heterocycles such as indoles.
