A Convenient Methodology for the in situ Oxidation of 4-Substituted Urazoles. Setting Up a One-Pot Procedure for the Efficient Protection of Dienes
摘要:
The oxidation of 4-substituted urazoles to the corresponding 1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-diones can be performed selectively in the presence of dienic systems by the action of the nitrosonium ion, formed in situ by stoichiometric amounts of sodium nitrite and acetic acid. This convenient methodology is mild, fast, and allows the efficient protection of dienic systems in a one-pot procedure. The dienes were not affected whatsoever by the nitrosonium ion, and react extremely fast with triazolinediones; promptly forming the corresponding Diels-Alder cycloadducts in good to excellent yields. The reaction medium did not affect steroids having an extra double bond at the side chain or an acid-labile spiroketal moiety.

The ergosterol diene system reacts in excellent yield with a series of 4-substituted 1,2,4-triazoline-3,5-diones generated by in situ oxidation of the appropriate hydrazides with phenylseleninic anhydride or phenylseleninic acid. Diaryltelluroxide and diphenylselenoxide are also efficient oxdants. The diene system can be smoothly regenerated by alkaline hydrolysis.
