Synthesis and structural investigation of 4,4′-dimethyl-[3,3′-bi(1,2,5-oxadiazole)] 5,5′-dioxide

Аннотация

The oxidation of hexane-2,3,4,5-tetraone tetraoxime with dinitrogen tetroxide was studied in different solvents. The primary furoxan ring closure was found to occur involving either two central or two terminal oxime groups to form 4,7-dimethyl[1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-d]pyridazine 1,5,6-trioxide and the previously unknown 4,4′-dimethyl-[3,3′-bi(1,2,5-oxadiazole)] 5,5′-dioxide. The structure of the latter compound was established by X-ray diffraction.
