Pyridine-iV-oxide

Oxygen donors like peroxy acids, ozone, and pyridine IV-oxides cause carbon-carbon cleavage, perhaps by formation of a perepoxide (43 Scheme 30) (81JCS(P1)1871). Other oxidants have also been reported to react with oxiranes (64HC( 19-1)228). 

Conditions (a) 1-5 mol% catalyst, w-CPBA/NMO, -78°C, CH2CI2. (b) 1-5 mol% catalyst, NaOCl, 4-phenylpyridine iV-oxide, 0°C, CH2CI2. (c) 1-5 mol% catalyst, NaOCl, pyridine iV-oxide, 0°C, CH2CI2. (d) Solvent = diethyl ether... 

Dichlorocarbene, generated in a variety of ways, was shown to deoxygenate pyridine iV-oxide, being itself oxidized to phosgene. 

The phenylation of quinoline with dibenzoyl peroxide was studied by Pausacker, who obtained all seven monophenylated quinolines in relative amounts shown in (4).- He also examined the phenylation of pyridine-iV-oxide with diazoaminobenzene and obtained the results shown in (5). ... 

Mono- and dilithio derivatives of p-tosylmethyl isocyanide 297a were shown to display interesting reactions. Reaction of the monoanion with unsaturated esters was shown to give pyrrole derivatives . Dianion 297b was found to add to the carbon-nitrogen double bonds of isoquinoline, quinoline and quinoxaline affording compounds 298, 299 and 300, respectively. In the reactions with pyridine iV-oxide and pyridazine iV-oxide, unstable open-chain products 301 and 302 were obtained . 

Slow addition of hexamethyldisilane in THF to pyridine iV-oxide and tetrabutylammonium fluoride in THF effected smooth reduction to pyridine, while addition of undiluted fluoride led to an explosion on two occasions.

Closure of the oxadiazole ring is still achieved through cycloaddition between pyridine iV-oxides and isocyanates, affording adducts such as 142 (Scheme 38) <1995T6451>. Nonaromatic imine fV-oxides exhibited similar reactivities, since azasugar-derived fV-oxides as a mixture of 143 and 144 underwent cycloaddition reactions in the presence of phenyl isocyanate or trichloroacetonitrile. Compounds 145 and 146 (Scheme 39) were obtained from the aldoxime W-oxide 143 two other regioisomeric heterocycles arose from the ketoxime derivative 144 <1996T4467>. 

Recently a new synthetic pathway to tctrazolo[l,5-z/ pyridine has been explored by Keith <2006JOC9540>. According to this new procedure, pyridine iV-oxides can be treated by sulfonyl or phosphoryl azide to furnish tetrazolo[ 1,5-tf]pyridines in one reaction step in medium to good yields (30-100%). 

Nickel(II) complexes of a variety of bidentate sulfoxide ligands have been reported (326,378,413) and [NiL3][C104]2 species reported where L is the unusual bidentate ligand 2-(ethysulfinyl)pyridine-iV-oxide. Bidentate 0,0-coordination via sulfoxide and pyridine-N-oxide donors is assigned from infrared data (63). 

The new ligand, 2.3-di-(2-pyridine iV-oxide)quinoxaline (83) has been prepared and the complexes [CoCl2L],1.5H20, [CoBr2L],H20, and [C0I2L],-H2O isolated from its reaction with the appropriate cobalt(ii) salt in ethanol. All three complexes are tetrahedral s ...
