S. Nakatsuji et al., Deoxygenation reaction of phenyl nitronyl nitroxides with the strong acceptors TCNQF(4) and TCNQ, J CHEM R-S, (10), 1999, pp. 620-621
The reaction of certain phenyl nitronyl nitroxide derivatives with strong a
ccepters such as TCNQF(4) or TCNQ in appropriate solvents give the correspo
nding imine nitroxide derivatives by an anomalous deoxygenation reaction wi
th accepters in a selective manner.
