Oxazoles are rapidly assembled through a sequential deprotonation-condensation of Asmic, anisylsulfanylmethylisocyanide, with esters followed by sulfanyl-lithium exchange-trapping. Deprotonating Asmic affords a metalated isocyanide that efficiently traps esters to afford oxazoles bearing a versatile C-4 anisylsulfanyl substituent. Interchange of the anisylsulfanyl substituent is readily achieved through a first-in-class sulfur-lithium exchange-electrophilic trapping sequence whose versatility is illustrated in the three-step synthesis of the bioactive natural product streptochlorin.
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 3. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 05 February 2021.
All research outputs
#7,694,776
of 23,567,572 outputs
Outputs from Organic Letters
#5,526
of 14,412 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#191,635
of 507,978 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Organic Letters
#99
of 233 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,567,572 research outputs across all sources so far. This one has received more attention than most of these and is in the 67th percentile.
So far Altmetric has tracked 14,412 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.4. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 507,978 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 61% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 233 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one has gotten more attention than average, scoring higher than 56% of its contemporaries.
