Abstract:Nitrostilbenes characterized by two different or differently substituted aryl moieties can be obtained from the initial ring-opening of 3-nitrobenzo[b]thiophene with amines. Such versatile building blocks couple the well-recognized double electrophilic reactivity of the nitrovinyl moiety (addition to the double bond, followed by, e.g., intramolecular replacement of the nitro group) with the possibility to exploit a conjugated system of double bonds within an electrocyclization process. Herein, nitrostilbenes a… Show more
