Abstract
The acyl nitroso Diels–Alder reaction of 1,3‐dienes with electrochemically oxidised hydroxamic acids is described. By using alternating current electrolysis, their typical electro‐induced decomposition could be suppressed in favour of the 1,2‐oxazine cycloaddition products. The reaction was optimised using Design of Experiments (DoE) and a sensitivity test was conducted. A mixture of triethylamine/hexafluoroisopropanol served as supporting electrolyte in dichloromethane, thus giving products of high purity after evaporation of the volatiles without further purification. The optimised reaction conditions were applied to various 1,3‐dienes and hydroxamic acids, giving up to 96 % isolated yield.
