One-step construction of molecular complexity by tert-butyl nitrite (TBN)-initiated cascade α,β-sp3 C–H bond difunctionalization and C–N bond cleavage†
Abstract
TBN-initiated cascade multifunctionalization of inert C–H and C–N bonds in N-arylazacycles has been realized under transition-metal free conditions, in which the synthetically useful oxime, N–NO and aldehyde functional groups were constructed in only one synthetic step.
