J Org Chem. 2019 Aug 2;84(15):9548-9560. doi: 10.1021/acs.joc.9b01166. Epub 2019 Jul 12.

Abstract

A novel and efficient [3 + 2] cycloaddition reaction of azaoxyallyl cations and 1,2-benzisoxazoles to give oxazoline derivatives has been developed. The transformation provides a rapid entry to functionalized oxazoline scaffolds under mild and transition-metal-free conditions, which will greatly expand the reaction types of heterocycle chemistry and pave the way for syntheses of bioactive compounds.
