Electrosynthesis of a <i>cyclo</i> -N <sub>5</sub> <sup>−</sup> anion <i>via</i> TEMPO-mediated selective C–N bond cleavage in aryl-pentazole
A non-metal and efficient electrochemical strategy for synthesizing a <i>cyclo</i>-N<sub>5</sub><sup>-</sup> anion through TEMPO-catalysed selective C-N bond cleavage in aryl-pentazole has been established. This novel protocol features avoidance of metal catalysts, mild conditions, water as the sole oxygen source, and applicability to other <i>N</i>-arylzoles.
