M. Murakata et al., OXIDATIVE CYCLIZATION OF O-PHENOLIC OXIME-ACID DERIVATIVES USING PHENYLIODONIUM DIACETATE - SYNTHESIS OF SPIROISOXAZOLINE DERIVATIVES, Tetrahedron, 52(47), 1996, pp. 14713-14722
An efficient formation or spiroisoxazoline ring system by intramolecul
ar oxidative cyclisation of o-phenolic oxime-esters and oxime-amides u
sing phenyliodonium diacetate (PIDA) is described. The intramolecular
oxidative cyclisation or various o-phenolic oxime-acid derivatives in
acetonitrile at 0 degrees C proceeded smoothly to afford spiroisoxazol
ines in good yields. Synthesis of o-phenolic oxime-esters and oxime-am
ides was also described. (C) Copyright (C) 1996 Elsevier Science Ltd
