Oxepine is the simplest unsaturated oxygen - containing seven - membered heterocycle .
presentation
Oxepin can be obtained by the chemical reaction of 4,5-dibromo-cyclohexene oxide with a base . This is an elimination reaction . Gillard et al. used DBU as base for this .
properties
Oxepin does not have an aromatic system , it is in equilibrium with benzene oxide :
In this valence tautomerism equilibrium, both components have approximately the same share.
