A bench-stable N-trifluoroacetyl nitrene equivalent for a simple synthesis of 2-trifluoromethyl oxazoles†
Abstract
ortho-Nitro-substituted N-trifluoroacetyl imino-λ3-iodane is a bench-stable trifluoroacetyl nitrene precursor, in which intra- and intermolecular halogen bonding (XB) plays an important role. Potential synthetic applications of this novel precursor were explored.
