摘要:
AbstractPseudohalogenation of methyl 9‐hydroxy‐cis‐12‐octadecenoate (I) and methyl 12‐hydroxy‐cis‐9‐octadecenoate (II) has been carried out with N,N‐dibromobenzenesulfonamide (NNDBS). Compounds I and II, on reaction with NNDBS, formed four and three products, respectively. The interesting feature of these reactions was the formation of 1,4‐epoxy compounds. The structures of individual compounds were established with the help of elemental and spectral analysis.
