Rh. Wallace et al., AN EFFICIENT METHOD FOR THE PREPARATION OF OPTICALLY-ACTIVE 4-HYDROXY-DELTA(2)-ISOXAZOLINES, Tetrahedron letters, 38(39), 1997, pp. 6791-6794
In this letter we report a method for the preparation of optically act
ive 4-hydroxy-Delta(2)-isoxazoIines. This methodology relies on the us
e of a camphorsultam substituted vinylboronic ester which upon nitrile
oxide cycloaddition and oxidation affords the optically active 4-hydr
oxy-Delta 2-isoxazolines in good yield. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
