A facile approach to obtaining densely functionalized cyclopropanes is described. The reaction proceeds under mild conditions via the directed nucleopalladation of nonconjugated alkenes with readily available pronucleophiles and gives excellent yields good anti-selectivity using I2 TBHP as oxidants. Pronucleophiles bearing a diverse collection electron-withdrawing groups, including −CN, −CO2R, −COR, −SO2Ph, −CONHR, −NO2, are well tolerated. Internal alkenes, which generally challenging...

Borane-amines have garnered attention over the last several decades in a variety of applications, ranging from hydrogen storage materials to hypergolic fuel systems. An investigation into synthesis borane-amines with high-nitrogen content heterocycles was undertaken this work. were formed by reaction BH3·Me2S tetrahydrofuran (THF) requisite nitrogen-containing heterocycle and isolated placing crude mixture hexanes precipitate product. X-ray crystallography, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA),...

Nitrogen-/oxygen-containing functional groups (N/O groups) may be found in a wide variety of areas such as agriculture, drug design and energetic materials. Exploring the chemistry synthesis N/O is desirable compounds containing their functionality prove to invaluable fields. A unique group which offer additional insight into high-heteroatom content systems 2-nitrodiazene-1-N-oxide (NDO group). While on own, NDOs combine well-known azoxy (N(O)=N) nitro (-NO2) single group. Although superior...

ABSTRACT Azoxy coupling of 5‐amino‐1‐methyl‐tetrazole, 5‐amino‐2‐methyl‐tetrazole, and 5‐amino‐1‐methoxy‐tetrazole was performed by reacting each with various oxidants. These reactions revealed aqueous Oxone to be the most facile system for yielding azoxy couple previously mentioned tetrazoles. Chemical structural characterization novel azoxy‐coupled tetrazole conducted 1 H NMR, 13 C HRMS, single‐crystal x‐ray diffraction. Energetic evaluated analysis compounds' single crystal diffraction...
