“…[7] 3-Methyl-4-nitroimino-tetrahydro-1,3,5-oxadiazine (compound 2), N-(1,5-dimethyl-1,3,5-triazinan-2-ylidene)nitramide (compound 3a), and N-(5-ethyl-1-methyl-1,3,5-triazinan-2-ylidene)nitramide (compound 3b) are the major products of the Mannich reaction of 1, in which compound 2 is one of the most important intermediates in synthetic pesticides. In many reports, the major catalysts used for the transformation were acids, for example hydrochloric acid, trifluoroacetic acid, glacial acetic acid, and formic acid, which have been studied by Maienfisch et al, [7][8][9] Gobel et al, [10] Fan et al, [11] Kang et al, [12] Zhou et al, [13] Tao et al, [14] Scheme 1. Mannich reaction general formula.…”
