摘要:
Oxidation of primary nitramine anions RNNO2-Bu4N+ (R = Me, Et, Pr-i, or methoxyfurazanyl) in 0.1 N Bu4NClO4 in MeCN on a Pt anode was studied by voltammetry and controlled potential electrolysis. It was found that the first stage of oxidation affords the corresponding radicals, which are further stabilized due to hydrogen abstraction from the medium. These radicals are also involved in other reactions, including those, which yield azo derivatives. The possibility of generation of nitrene species in these reactions is discussed.
