Abstract

A series of N-alkyl- and N-aryl-2-cyano-2-diazoacetamides was synthesized by the reaction of 2-amino-2-cyanoacetamides with sodium nitrite in hydrochloric acid. The mechanism of their heteroclectrocyclization to 5-hydroxy-1,2,3-triazoles was investigated kinetically and theoretically by the B3LYP/6-31+G* method. The conclusion was made on the basis of the determined activation energy of the cyclization process. reaction parameters ϖ, and kinetic isotope effects, that there is a difference between the mechanisms of cyclization of the N-alkyl and N-aryl derivatives of 2-cyano-2-diazoacetamide; cyclization of the N-alkyl derivatives takes place by a monorotatory mechanism, while cyclization of the N-aryl derivatives takes place by a mechanism where one of the stages is heteroelectrocyclization of 2-diazoacetimidates.
