Iv. Ovchinnikov et al., THE CURTIUS REARRANGEMENT OF AZIDOCARBONYLFUROXANS - SOME PECULIARITIES AND THE SYNTHESIS OF AMINOFUROXANS, Mendeleev communications, (2), 1995, pp. 58-60
The kinetics of the Curtius rearrangement of the isomeric 3(4)-azidoca
rbonyl-4(3)-methylfuroxans has been studied; CON3 group rearrangement
was shown to proceed faster at the 3- versus the 4-position and to be
favoured by an electron-withdrawing substituent at the second ring car
bon atom; a series of previously inaccessible isomeric aminofuroxans h
as been synthesized.
