The unprecedented substitution of a nitro group with aryl or alkenyl groups of Grignard reagents affords 2-aryl or alkenylpyridine N-oxides in modest to high yields with high chemoselectivity. This protocol allows a simple and clean synthesis of various 2-substituted pyridine N-oxides and the corresponding pyridine derivatives. Furthermore, straightforward one-pot iterative functionality of pyridine N-oxides could also be achieved simply by successive applications of two Grignard reagents.
芳基或烯基格氏试剂前所未有的取代硝基,以中等至高收率和高化学选择性得到 2-芳基或烯基吡啶 N-氧化物。该方案允许各种 2-取代吡啶 N-氧化物和相应的吡啶衍生物的简单和清洁合成。此外,通过连续应用两个格氏试剂,也可以简单地实现吡啶 N-氧化物的直接一锅迭代官能化。
