NaNO 2 has been studied. It was shown for the first time that, as in the case of NaOH and MeONa, the reaction occurs with opening of the oxadiazolone ring to form exo-N-substituted amidines. It was shown that the weakly basic nucleophiles readily react with substrates which contain a substituent sensitive to attack by such nucleophiles as NaOH or MeONa. The effect of the nature of the nucleophiles on the reaction course for opening of the oxadiazolone ring was also studied. It was found that the reactivity of the nucleophiles in DMSO changes in the series F -> CN -> N 3 ->NO 2 -> Cl -> Br -and qualitatively correlates with their basicities in this solvent. Examination of the effect of the ratio of the reagents on the degree of conversion of the starting oxadiazolone has shown that a quantity of nucleophiles less than one equivalent also allowed the cleavage reaction of the oxadiazolone heterocycle to go to completion through just increasing the reaction time. The experimental data obtained lends support to the proposed reaction scheme.The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of isocyanates to aldonitrones is one of the most efficient methods of synthesizing heterocyclic compounds. The cycloadducts formed (1,2,4-oxadiazol-5-one derivatives) are characterized by high stability and are used to capture unstable nitrones in order to identify them in an _______ * Dedicated to Academician B.
