ChemInform Abstract On treatment with a base, the tetroxide (I) generates 1,2-and/or 1,4-dipolar fragments, which are trapped by the alkenes (II) or by the alkynes (V) to afford products of (2 + 2) cycloaddition, the 1,2-thiazetidine 1,1-dioxides (III) and/or products of (2 + 4) cycloaddition, the 1,4,5-oxathiazine 4,4-dioxides (IV) or (VI). The mechanisms of these cycloadditions are discussed in detail. The derivatives (IIIa) and (IVa) are additionally characterized by X-ray analyses. Compound (IIIa) has the space group P1 with Z=2 and compound (IVa) has the space group P21/b with Z=4. Features of the structures of these compounds are described in detail.
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.
