An iron-catalyzed nitrene transfer reaction of nitrosobenzenes with N-acyloxyamides for accessing N-acyl azoxy molecules

Abstract

Reported herein is a nitrene transfer reaction of nitrosobenzenes with N-acyloxyamides using FeCl24H2O as a cheap and commercially available catalyst, affording the N-acyl azoxy compounds with high functional-group compatibility. This...
