1,2,4-Oxadiazole[4,5-<i>a</i>]piridinium salts add alcohols and alkoxides to undergo electrocyclic ring opening affording alkoxybutadienyl 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives. The pyridinium salts represent a special class of Zincke salts that are prone to rearrange to give alkoxybutadienyl 1,2,4-oxadiazoles when treated with suitable nucleophiles or, alternatively, to give pyridones in the presence of bicarbonate. The pivotal tuning of the experimental conditions leads to a straightforward synthesis o ...[more]
