Reactivity of perfluoro-(cis-2,3-dialkyloxaziridines) with heteroaromatic nitrogen compounds
Abstract
Pyridine N-oxides 3 are exclusively formed under particularly mild conditions when perfluorinated dialkyloxaziridines 1 are reacted with pyridine derivatives 2 bearing a substituent at the 2-position. Starting from pyridines substituted at the 3- and 4-positions, the previously unreported N-perfluoroacylpyridiniumaminides 4 are also produced and isolated as solid, stable compounds. Bis(pyridinium-N-aminides) 9, which have been prepared starting from bis-pyridine substrates and pyridazine and quinoxaline starting materials, also show the same reactivity. This behaviour reveals how oxaziridines 1 can work as both aminating and oxygenating agents.
