ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Heterocycles Through Reactions of Nucleophiles with Acrylonitriles.
Abstract
The β-pyridinyl acrylonitriles (I) react with compounds with active methylene groups, such as (II), (IV) and (VI), to give the corresponding condensation products (III), (V), and (VII).
ChemInform Abstract
The β-pyridinyl acrylonitriles (I) react with compounds with active methylene groups, such as (II), (IV) and (VI), to give the corresponding condensation products (III), (V), and (VII). The activating effect of the 4-pyridinyl substituent on the double bond in acrylonitriles is demonstrated.
