Abstract:Synthesis and Properties of Halogen-Containing Allyl Series Epoxy-Compounds. -Reaction of allylic alcohol (I) with epichlorohydrin provides access to epoxide (III) containing a 2-haloallyl substituent. On reaction with KOH, dehydrohalogenation proceeds at the allylic residue to furnish an epoxide containing an tethered ethynyl residue (VII), while the reactions with amine (IV) and thiourea take place at the epoxide ring. A second synthetic access to halogen-substituted allylepoxides [e.g. (X)] is presented, in… Show more
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.
