One-Step Conversion of Azine <i>N</i>‑Oxides to α‑<i>N</i>‑Aryltriflamidoazines

Abstract

Various pyridine, quinoline, isoquinoline, and pyrimidine <i>N</i>-oxides were converted to their corresponding α-<i>N</i>-aryltriflamidoheteroarenes in good yield by treatment with <i>N</i>-aryltriflimides, both neat and in solution, at temperatures ranging from rt to 100 °C
