STRUCTURAL DETERMINATION OF THE OZONIDES DERIVED FROM MONO-SUBSTITUTED ALKENES

Article abstract of DOI:10.3987/COM-91-5663

The structures of 1,2,4-trioxolanes (ozonides) (2a-2f) derived from mono-substituted alkanes (1a-1f), respectively, were determined by spectroscopic methods, such as 1H-nmr, 13C-nmr, ir, two-dimensional nmr, and mass spectra.The coupling constant of the geminal protons on the trioxolane ring is zero.This unusual coupling constant resulted from the electronegativity of two oxygen atoms near the geminal protons.
