Conclusions

  1. 1.

    When 6-nitro-2,9-dioxa-1-azabicyclo[4.3.0]nonane derivatives are treated with NaCN in either DMF or ethanol the nitro group is replaced by the cyano group, in which connection a mixture of two steric isomers is formed.

  2. 2.

    The replacement reaction proceeds via the step of prior ionization of the nitro group and subsequent attack of the intermediately formed immonium cation by the nucleophile.
