  • Rearrangements of 1,2,4-Oxadiazole: “One Ring to Rule Them All”
    Chemistry of Heterocyclic Compounds, 2017
    Co-Authors: Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Andrea Pace, Silvestre Buscemi
    Abstract:

    1,2,4-Oxadiazoles are heterocycles characterized by low aromaticity and the presence of a weak O–N bond and are widely studied due to their tendency to rearrange into more stable heterocyclic compounds. This review covers literature from the last fifteen years, highlighting the general features of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles and their applications. Regarding the reactivity, the development of classical reactions (thermal and photochemical Rearrangements) is presented in terms of synthetic utility and mechanistic insight. Among the relevant Rearrangement reactions, the Boulton–Katritzky Rearrangement (BKR), Migration – Nucleophilic Attack – Cyclization (MNAC), and Addition of the Nucleophile, Ring Opening, and Ring Closure (ANRORC) reactions are discussed, together with recent noteworthy syntheses and applications of the 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring.

  • Synthesis of Isoxazoline Derivatives Through Boulton—Katritzky Rearrangement of 1,2,4-Oxadiazoles.
    ChemInform, 2013
    Co-Authors: Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Andrea Pace, Annalisa Guarcello, Silvestre Buscemi
    Abstract:

    This is the first report of the Rearrangement of 1,2,4-oxadiazole with saturated C—C—O side chains and an unusual example of an irreversible Rearrangement that allows the formation of nonaromatic heterocycles.

  • Synthesis of Isoxazoline Derivatives through Boulton–Katritzky Rearrangement of 1,2,4-Oxadiazoles
    European Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2013
    Co-Authors: Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Andrea Pace, Annalisa Guarcello, Silvestre Buscemi
    Abstract:

    The base-induced Rearrangement of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles into isoxazoline derivatives is reported. This represents the first example of a three-atom side-chain Rearrangement that involves a saturated CCO side chain at C-3 of the oxadiazole. Nonaromatic 3-amino-isoxazoline derivatives are obtained in good yields. Interestingly, this reaction occurs through the Rearrangement of aromatic oxadiazoles to form less stable bonds than those that are broken.

  • Synthesis of fluorinated 1,2,4-oxadiazin-6-ones through ANRORC Rearrangement of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles
    Tetrahedron Letters, 2009
    Co-Authors: Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Andrea Pace, Silvestre Buscemi, Nicolò Vivona, Gianluca Giorgi
    Abstract:

    Abstract The reaction of 3-ethoxycarbonyl-5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles with hydroxylamines has been investigated, evidencing the possibility of competitive reaction paths. Nucleophilic addition of hydroxylamine to the electrophilic C(5) of the 1,2,4-oxadiazole ring, followed by ring-opening and ring-closure with enlargement, leads to high yield and in very mild experimental conditions to the formation of 5-hydroxyamino-3-perfluoroalkyl-6 H -1,2,4-oxadiazin-6-ones, one of these presenting water gelation ability. In turn, reactions with N -methylhydroxylamine lead the exclusive formation of 4-perfluoroacylamino-2-methyl-2 H -1,2,5-oxadiazol-3-ones through the well known Boulton–Katritzky Rearrangement.

  • Synthesis of trifluoromethylated 2-benzoyl-and 2-aminoimidazoles from ring Rearrangement of 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives
    Tetrahedron, 2008
    Co-Authors: Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Andrea Pace, Silvestre Buscemi, Nicolò Vivona, M. Pani
    Abstract:

    Abstract Fluoroalkylated 2-ylamino-imidazoles have been synthesized by reaction of 3-amino-5-phenyl-1,2,4-oxadiazole with fluorinated β-dicarbonyl compounds and subsequent base-induced Boulton–Katritzky Rearrangement (BKR) of the isolated β-enaminocarbonyl intermediate. Alternatively, one-pot reactions performed in the presence of Montmorillonite K10 favoured the condensation at the 3-amino moiety of the oxadiazole and, in some cases, allowed the direct synthesis of 2-benzoylamino-imidazoles. Hydrolysis of 2-benzoylamino-imidazoles easily yielded fluorinated 2-amino-imidazoles targets.

  • Unexpected Substituent Effects in the Iso-Heterocyclic Boulton-Katritzky Rearrangement of 3-Aroylamino-5-Methyl-1,2,4-Oxadiazoles: a Mechanistic Study
    The journal of physical chemistry. A, 2019
    Co-Authors: Vincenzo Frenna, Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Paolo Lo Meo, Domenico Spinelli
    Abstract:

    The kinetics of the iso-heterocyclic mononuclear Rearrangement of some 3-aroylamino-5-methyl-1,2,4-ozadiazoles was carefully examined under largely variable acidic or alkaline conditions. This reaction may proceed via two different mechanistic pathways (an uncatalyzed and a base-catalyzed one), as accounted for also by the evaluation of the relevant activation parameters. Substituent effects, as quantified by means of the Hammett’s equation, appear relatively modest; however, they reveal some interesting anomalies, which enabled us to draw a very precise picture of the intimate reaction course.

  • Experimental and DFT studies on competitive heterocyclic Rearrangements. Part 2: a one-atom side-chain versus the classic three-atom side-chain (Boulton-Katritzky) ring Rearrangement of 3-acylamino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles.
    The Journal of organic chemistry, 2007
    Co-Authors: Andrea Pace, Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Silvestre Buscemi, Nicolò Vivona, Ivana Pibiri, Giampaolo Barone
    Abstract:

    The experimental investigation of the base-catalyzed Rearrangements of 3-acylamino-1,2,4-oxadiazoles evidenced a new reaction pathway which competes with the well-known ring-degenerate Boulton-Katritzky Rearrangement (BKR). The new reaction consists of a one-atom side-chain Rearrangement that is base-activated, occurs at a higher temperature than the BKR, and irreversibly leads to the corresponding 2-acylamino-1,3,4-oxadiazoles. An extensive DFT study is reported to elucidate the proposed reaction mechanism and to compare the three possible inherent routes: (i) the reversible three-atom side-chain ring-degenerate BKR, (ii) the ring contraction-ring expansion route (RCRE), and (iii) the one-atom side-chain Rearrangement. The results of the computational investigation point out that the latter route is kinetically preferred over the RCRE and can be considered as the ground-state analogue of a previously proposed C(3)-N(2) migration-nucleophilic attack-cyclization (MNAC) photochemically activated pathway. The MNAC consists of the formation of a diazirine intermediate, involving the exocyclic nitrogen, that eventually evolves into a carbodiimide intermediate (migration); the latter undergoes a single intramolecular nucleophilic attack-cyclization step leading to the final 2-acylamino-1,3,4-oxadiazole.

  • five to six membered ring Rearrangements in the reaction of 5 perfluoroalkyl 1 2 4 oxadiazoles with hydrazine and methylhydrazine
    Journal of Organic Chemistry, 2006
    Co-Authors: Silvestre Buscemi, Antonio Palumbo Piccionello, Andrea Pace, Nicolò Vivona, Gianluca Giorgi, Ivana Pibiri, Andrea Mazzanti, Domenico Spinelli
    Abstract:

    The hydrazinolysis reaction of 5-perfluoroalkyl-1,2,4-oxadiazoles with hydrazine or methylhydrazine as bidentate nucleophiles has been investigated. The reaction occurred through the addition of the bidentate nucleophile to the C(5)−N(4) double bond of the 1,2,4-oxadiazole followed by ring-opening and ring-closure (ANRORC) involving the second nucleophilic site of the reagent. This ring-closure step could involve either the original C(3) of the 1,2,4-oxadiazole (giving a five-to-five membered ring Rearrangement) or an additional electrophilic center linked to it (exploiting a five-to-six membered ring Rearrangement). An alternative initial nucleophilic attack may involve the additional electrophilic center linked at C(3), that is the carbonyl group, leading to the formation of the hydrazones which undergo the Boulton−Katritzky Rearrangement (BKR). The chosen reaction path is a function of the used nucleophile and of the nature of the substituent at C(3). At variance with previous hypotheses, when methylhy...
