ChemInform Abstract
Amino acid estes such as (V) are synthesized from the molybdenum nitride (I) via formation of imide and nitrogen ylide intermediates and an electrochemical Mo-N bond cleavage step. A single crystal X-ray structure of the nitrogen ylide (III) is carried out (space group C2; Z = 4). The use of asymmetric tertiary phosphine co-ligands might allow access to optically active products.
