Furoxan Incorporation into C-H Bonds Enabling Nitrogen-Containing Functional Group Installation into the Same.

A C-C bond forming method was developed, whereby a furoxan ring is incorporated into various types of C-H bonds. The protocol not only offers a concise synthetic route to a variety of alkylated furoxan derivatives but also provides an efficient strategy for the insertion of various nitrogen-containing functional groups into C-H bonds via transformation of the resultant furoxan ring.
