A focus on 1-azahomocubane: the new kid on the block

Strained hydrocarbons have recently regained interest as potential drug candidates. However, the study of their heteroatom analogs has remained limited, despite differing by only a single atom. The first synthesis of 1-azahomocubane by Williams, Eaton and co-workers (T. Fahrenhorst-Jones et al., Che...

Sumario:Strained hydrocarbons have recently regained interest as potential drug candidates. However, the study of their heteroatom analogs has remained limited, despite differing by only a single atom. The first synthesis of 1-azahomocubane by Williams, Eaton and co-workers (T. Fahrenhorst-Jones et al., Chem. Sci., 2023, 14, 2821–2825, https://doi.org/10.1039/D3SC00001J) is discussed within the context of nitrogen scanning of strained hydrocarbons.
