Title: Functionalized oxepines via fragmentation of highly strained epoxides. Author: Leyhane AJ, Snapper ML. Journal: Org Lett; 2006 Nov 09; 8(23):5183-6. PubMed ID: 17078673. Abstract: [Structure: see text] Epoxidation of highly strained cyclobutenes followed by thermal rearrangement provides a new entry into oxepine-containing bicyclo[5.3.0] ring systems. In contrast to the rearrangement of the corresponding cyclopropanated systems, the strained epoxides in this study are believed to fragment through two competing pathways leading to a mixture of diastereomeric 5-7 ring systems.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
