Abstract
Carboxylic acids react rapidly and quantitatively with iminodiaziridines to afford 1,2,4-trisubstituted 1-acylsemicarbazides in a multistep sequence. In this way, a carboxy group is readily converted into an azapeptide motif. Broad signals in high-field ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectra recorded for the products are indicative of dynamic processes.
Key words
azapeptides - heterocycles - hydrolysis - ring-opening - semicarbazides
