Reactions of nitrogen-containing compounds with ozone: kinetics and mechanisms

Sung Eun Lim

Nitrogen-containing moieties are widespread in natural waters in dissolved organic nitrogen and micropollu-tants. They are often susceptible to an electrophilic attack of ozone because of the electron-rich nature of the neutral form of nitrogen in organic ...

Azide Radical Initiated Ring Opening of Cyclopropenes Leading to Alkenyl Nitriles and Polycyclic Aromatic Compounds

Jérôme Waser, Bastian Antoine Rodolphe Claude Muriel

We report herein a radical‐mediated amination of cyclopropenes. The transformation proceeds through a cleavage of the three‐membered ring after the addition of an azide radical on the strained double bond and leads to tetrasubstituted alkenyl nitrile deriv ...
