• . 1,2,5-Oxadiazoles (furazans) and their N-oxides (furoxans) are important representatives of nitrogen heterocycles due to their wide applications in various fields of medicine, chemistry, and materials science [6][7]. For example, these heterocycles serve as valuable building blocks for the synthesis of

• high-energy materials [8][9][10][11][12][13]. Moreover, furazan derivatives possess antiproliferative, antibacterial, antiparasitic and antiviral activity [14][15][16]. On the other hand, furoxans referred to as unique heterocyclic compounds that exhibit NO-releasing properties under physiological

Results and Discussion We started our investigations toward the development of the desired synthetic approach to [1,2,5]oxadiazolo[3,4-d][1,2,3]triazin-7(6H)-one 2-oxides 1 using functionalized furoxans 2 and 3 as suitable substrates. The starting amide precursors 2 were

The synthesis of furoxans or 1,2,5-oxadiazole-2-oxides was first reported by Kekulé in 1857 [36]. Since then, these nitric oxide

• donors have shown important biological activities due to their unique electronic and coordination ability [37][38], such as antitumor [39] and antiparasitic [40][41]. Previously, furoxans were synthesized via dimerization of hydroximoyl chlorides in the presence of a base, such as trimethylamine in ether

• dipoles not only react with various dipolarophiles but also undergo spontaneous dimerization to form furoxans. To avoid or minimize this drawback, the substitutents (e.g., Cl or Me) around the CNO group were introduced to stabilize the nitrile oxides even at room temperature [46][47]. Here, the 2,6

It is known that nitrile oxides can dimerize or isomerize to yield different products, such as furoxans, isocyanates, 1,2,4-oxadiazoles and 1,4,2,5-dioxadiazines (Figure 2
