“…However, these syntheses are usually carried out in organic solvents. As part of our current studies on the development of new routes to heterocyclic systems in aqueous media [21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28], we now report an efficient and clean synthetic route to isoxazole derivatives via the reaction of 3-(dimethylamino)-1-arylprop-2-en-1-ones with hydroxylamine hydrochloride in aqueous media.…”
