Abstract
Cycloaddition of oxygen-functionalized nitrile oxides to the enamine f rom ethyl acetoacetate produces 4-ethoxycarbonyl-5-methylisoxazoles ca rrying a 3-tetrahydropyranyloxymethyl, 3-diethoxymethyl or 3-ethoxycar bonyl substituent; the 3-formylisoxazole is prepared from the former t wo and condensed in situ with phosphoranes to give 3-alkenylisoxazoles that are cleaved by hexacarbonylmolybdenum or hydrogenolysis to affor d alpha-alkoxycarbonyl-beta-diketones.
