The photoirradiation of 3,5-disubstituted 2-isoxazolines and Fe(CO)5 in MeOH causes the N–O and C4–C5 bond cleavage to give two fragments of aldehydes and ketones, while that of 2-isoxazolines having no substituent at 5-position gives additional β-hydroxy- and β-methoxyketones.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
