Deoxygenation Reaction of Phenyl Nitronyl Nitroxides with the Strong Acceptors TCNQF4 and TCNQ
Abstract
The reaction of certain phenyl nitronyl nitroxide derivatives with strong acceptors such as TCNQF4 or TCNQ in appropriate solvents give the corresponding imine nitroxide derivatives by an anomalous deoxygenation reaction with acceptors in a selective manner.
