Organocatalysed synthesis of isoxazolines initiated by a chemoselective oxa-Michael reaction of N-BocNHOH†
Abstract
An organocatalysed and chemoselective one-pot oxa-Michael-cyclocondensation reaction of N-BocNHOH to unsaturated α-ketoesters is reported which affords an original entry to enantioenriched 3-isoxazoline carboxylate derivatives as biorelevant heterocyclic frameworks.
