Abstract:The enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones
and
arylpropionaldehydes to generate highly functionalized scaffolds for
application in drug discovery was herein investigated. The use of
a second-generation MacMillan catalyst as hydrochloride salt consistently
accelerated the reaction speed, allowing a decrease in the reaction
time up to >100 times, still affording 4-isoxazolines with good
to
excellent enantiomeric ratios at room temperature. As a proof of concept,
further functionalization of the i… Show more
“…[3][4][5][6][7] 1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions between nitrones and alkynes or allenes are the most common strategy to synthesize 4-isoxazolines. [8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24][25] Regioisomers are often obtained in cycloaddition reactions between nitrones and asymmetrically substituted alkynes or allenes. 8,9 However, with some monosubstituted or electrondeficient alkynes, 4-isoxazolines can be achieved with good regioselectivity, which has been explained by FMO analysis.…”
4-Isoxazolines are important motifs in various biologically interesting molecules and versatile synthons for the preparation of various cyclic and acyclic compounds. Herein, two green and facile protocols were reported for...
