A novel and simple synthesis of 1-azabicyclo[3.1.0]hexane-3-ene derivatives is described. The synthesis is carried out via a simple three-component reaction between aryl aldehydes, malononitrile, and hydroxylamine hydrochloride in water. Eco-friendliness, excellent product yields, short reaction time, inexpensive and readily available starting materials, and interesting reaction and products are the main advantages of this method.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
