Synthesis of spiroisoxazolidinyl-benzoisothiazolines by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of benzoisothiazole-2,2-dioxide-3-ylidenes with nitrones

Synthesis of spiropyridazine-benzosultams by the [4 + 2] annulation reaction of 3-substituted benzoisothiazole 1,1-dioxides with 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes

A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of spiropyridazine-benzosultams has been developed by means of [4 + 2] annulation reaction of 3-substituted benzoisothiazole 1,1-dioxides with 1,2-diaza-1,3-dienes. This approach displays advantages such as mild reaction conditions, wide substrate range tolerance, simple operation, compatibility with gram-scale preparation.

A Convenient Synthesis of Novel Isoxazolidine and Isoxazole Isoquinolinones Fused Hybrids

Isoxazolidine, isoxazole, and isoquinolinone rings are present in the structure of several natural products and/or pharmaceutically interesting compounds. In this work, facile and efficient pathways have been developed for the preparation of fused frameworks bearing those heterocycles. The successful approaches for both isoxazolidine/isoquinolinone and isoxazole/isoquinolinone hybrid syntheses relied initially on 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of nitrones and nitrile oxides to indenone and 2-propargylbenzamide, respectively. The construction of the isoquinolinone lactam system followed by performing a selective Schmidt reaction for isoxazolidine derivatives (two steps overall), whereas the isoxazole lactams were reached via an Ullmann-type cyclisation (three steps overall). Key observations were made regarding the stereo- and regioselectivities of the reactions employed, and small libraries of the targeted hybrids were prepared, demonstrating the general applicability of these strategies.

Sc(OTf)3-catalyzed [3 + 2]-cycloaddition of nitrones with ynones

An efficient approach to access functionalized (2,3-dihydroisoxazol-4-yl) ketones has been developed by reacting nitrones 4 with ynones 7 or terminal ynones 10 in a one-pot fashion. The reaction went through a formal Sc(OTf)3-catalyzed [3 + 2]-cycloaddition process to generate a number of functionalized (2,3-dihydroisoxazol-4-yl) ketones 11aa-11aw, 11ba-11la and 12aa-12ae in moderate to good yields.

Ag(i)/(S,S)-ip-FOXAP catalyzed diastereo- and enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with benzosultam-3-ylidenes

The AgOAc/ip-FOXAP complex catalyzed the highly diastereo- and enantioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides with benzosultam-3-ylidenes to give a single isomer of the exo-cycloadduct in good yields.
