Synthesis of triols with C3 symmetry by ring opening of tris(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione with nucleophiles

The 15th International Electronic Conference on Synthetic Organic Chemistry session Microwave Assisted SynthesisThe reaction of tris(oxiran-2-ylmethyl)-1,3,5-triazinane-2,4,6-trione with phenol or N-methylaniline promoted by microwave heating, under solventless conditions, led to the opening of the oxirane ring through the less hindered carbon, leading to tripodal triols with C3 symmetry in good yieldsXunta de Galicia for financial support: INCITE09 262346PR.
