Rs. Kusurkar et al., STUDY OF THE CYCLOADDITION REACTION OF CONJUGATED OXIMES WITH AND WITHOUT LEWIS-ACID CATALYST - DEHYDROGENATION OF THE CYCLOADDUCTS TO ISOXAZOLES, Journal of chemical research. Synopses, (11), 1996, pp. 478-479
Substituted isoxazoles are synthesized by dehydrogenation of the appro
priate substituted isoxazolidines, prepared by 1,3-dipolar cycloadditi
on of thiophene-2-carbaldehyde oxime with conventional dipolarophiles;
based on these studies, cycloadducts obtained from 2-furaldehyde oxim
e, previously reported as [4+2] adducts, are revised to 1,3-dipolar st
ructures.
