Notes:
Nitrocyclohexene undergoes facile SnCl4-induced, [4 + 2]-cycloadditions with simple cycloalkenes to produce nitronates. The nitronates can be transformed sterospecifically into a number of other functional groups (alcohol, ketone, oxime, amine) by hydrolytic, reductive, and oxidative processes. The mechanism of the [4 + 2]-cycloaddition is believed to involve formation of a zwitterionic intermediate which can collapse via competing pathways to form the observed products. 1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions of the nitronates are described.
