Significance
An efficient synthesis of conjugated Z,Z,Z-trienes from cycloheptatriene is reported, featuring a nucleophile-intercepted Beckman fragmentation reaction.
#
Comment
Taking the readily available tropone oxime tosylate as the substrate, the reaction is suggested to have a bicyclic azirine intermediate according to the calculations.
