โฆ Synopsis
Recent reports describe peracid oxidation studies on cyclopropeues as a potential syuthetic approach to an oxabicyclobutaue derivative.2 Eowever, this hetexocyclic system has not yet been obtained, apparently a result of its facile rearraug-t to the i8americ coojugated carbonyl compound as iudicated below. In the course of related work, we have examined the peracid oxidation of several cyclopropenoues, a special class of electxoodeficient cyclopropenes,s and in the present paper we report upon the uovel txausfoxntion to acetylenes thus promoted.

The ready availability of imino ethers from alkylation of amides1 makes them attractive intermediates in the synthesis of new hetergcyclic compounds. We report here on the peracid oxidation of some strained and unstrained imino ethers to alkoxyoxasiranes and the reactivity of these new heterocycles.
