Synthesis of bis-(oxabicyclic tetrazole) polyoxyethylene via an intramolecular [2+3] cycloaddition of bis-(azidonitrile) polyoxyethylene derivatives
Written by sctunisie no commentsOligoethylene glycol diglycidyl ethers 1 were converted by the action of sodium azide in the hydro-methanolic medium into the corresponding (azido alcohols) 2. The latter react with 2-chloroacetonitrile in the presence of potassium t-butoxide in one pot, leading to new condensed ring systems 1,5-tetrazole 4 via an intramolecular [2+3] cycloaddition reaction. The present method avoids the formation and isolation of azido nitrile 3 generated in situ and also the use of any catalyst.
