Since its discovery in 1968, the ring opening of 3,4-dinitrothiophene (1) with amines has represented the first step in a number of valuable synthetic pathways.

In particular, target heterocycles encompass pyrroles, pyrrolidines, isoxazolines, isoxazoles, oxadiazoles, triazoles: i.e. systems endowed with high potentialities both in synthesis and in pharmacology.

Abstract
Since its discovery in 1968, the ring opening of 3,4-dinitrothiophene (1) with amines has represented the first step in a number of valuable synthetic pathways. As a matter of fact, the dinitrobutadienediamines (7 or 8) which smoothly form in ethanol at room temperature as a result of a clear example of the non-benzenoid behaviour of 1, are highly-functionalized unsaturated systems whose versatility as building-blocks has so far been exploited for the preparation of linear as well as of homo- and hetero-cyclic molecules. In particular, target heterocycles encompass pyrroles, pyrrolidines, isoxazolines, isoxazoles, oxadiazoles, triazoles: i.e. systems endowed with high potentialities both in synthesis and in pharmacology.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
