Abstract: | The reaction of amines, N‐substituted by a 7‐oxabicyclo2.2.1]hept‐5‐en‐2‐ylidene moiety, either with PhSCl or mCPBA (meta‐chloroperbenzoic acid) unexpectedly afforded the same type of furan derivatives by two different reaction paths. The results confirm the intervention of a homoconjugative, electron‐releasing effect of the oxabicycloalkenylideneamine moieties, as predicted theoretically. |
