The reaction of heterocyclic aromatic amines, anilines and tertiary amines with dimethyldioxirane (DMD) was examined. Treatment of heterocyclic aromatic amines and anilines with a slight excess of DMD at 0°C afforded the corresponding N-oxides in quantitative conversion yields. In addition, the oxidation was chemoselective in the presence of carbon-carbon double bonds. On the other hand, most of the tertiary amines assayed did afford also quantitative yields of the corresponding N. oxides, although reaction conditions, in particular regarding the amount of DMD required, depended on each substrate. Additional studies carried out on selected substrates suggested that certain N-oxides derived from tertiary amines deactivate DMD.

Amine oxides, 1, 5, 10, 15, 21, 23, when treated by lithium diisopropylamide undergo deprotonation.Monodeprotonation gives rise either to secondary amines and benzaldehyde resulting from the hydrolysis of an intermediate immonium (I) or to hydroxylamines via a Stevens-like rearrangement observed for the first time on an amine oxide.Double deprotonation gives an immonium ylid (Y) which, depending upon the structure of the initial tertiary amine yields either "head to head" piperazines (biradical-like behavior of (DD)) or aziridines.The immonium ylid (Y5) derived from trimethylamine oxide, whose formation and reactivity are reported for the first time, has remarkable property of undergoing cycloaddition reactions with unactivated olefins, leading to a new and efficient synthesis of various pyrrolidines.
