Reaction of N-(l-cyano-l-methylethyl)-α-phenylnitrone with phenyl-, 2-pyridyl- and 2-thienyl magnesium bromides: a new approach to alkylaromatic a-hydroxyamino-ketones
Abstract:
The reaction of N-(l-cyano-l-methylethyl)-α-phenylnitrone with phenyl-, 2-pyridyl- and 2-thienyl magnesium bromides affords 3-imidazolines which hydrolyse to alkylaromatic α-hydroxyaminoketones, synthons for stable nitroxides.
