Abstract
The reaction of highly electrophilic azolo[b]pyridines with pyrrole and indole derivatives as nucleophiles afforded 1,4-addition products to the pyridine ring. The reactions of structurally similar meta-dinitrobenzo-fused heterocycles (furoxan, thiadiazole, selenadiazole, pyridine) with C-nucleophiles (salts of ketones and 2-nitropropane) gave stable anionic σ-complexes in high yields. Their oxidation led to rearomatization with the formation of the corresponding products of substitution of a hydrogen atom with the nucleophile. The oxidation was generally accompanied by the decomposition of σ-complexes into the parent compounds.
