The N‐(1‐methylbenzyl) or N‐silylphenoxazines (I) are lithiated at C4 or C4 and C6, depending on the amount of butyllithium employed, and then quenched with various electrophiles, e.g. (II) or CO2 (VI), yielding mono‐ and disubstituted derivatives.
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.
