Description
Summary:Appropriately substituted N-centered urazolyl radicals are capable of generating interesting cage-like structures upon forming N-N bonds. The radicals are generated by the oxidation of the corresponding NH urazole precursors. We synthesized a triurazole precursor that we hoped would dimerize through the formation of three N-N bonds to afford a large molecular cage. Unfortunately, the attempts at the oxidation of the urazoles to form urazolyl radicals instead only lead to random oligomerization, forming plastic-like materials rather than the desired cages.
