Abstract
The 1-butyldimethylsilyl ether of enesulfonamido)propane-2-ol-1-(p-tol uenesulfonate) on treatment with LiH undergoes ring closure to the cor responding azetidine which is readily converted to N-tosyl-3-azetidino ne oxime. By oxidative nitrolysis the latter affords 1.3,3-trinitroaze tidine.
