Abstract:
(3aR*,6aR*)-3,3,5,5-Tetramethyl-3a,6a-dinitro-3a,6a-dihydro-3H-cyclopentano[c]pyrazol-2-oxide was formed by reaction of cycloartemisiaketone oxime [4,4-dimethyl-2-(1-methylethylidene)cyclopentanone oxime] with AcOH and NaNO2 in CHCl3 solution. The structure was solved by x-ray structure analysis.
