Novel synthesis of fused isoxazolidines via a palladium catalysed allene insertion–intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition cascade reaction
Abstract
A one pot, three component palladium catalysed allenation of aryl iodides, in combination with a nitrone cycloaddition, leads to formation of fused isoxazolidines, creating two rings, two stereocentres and one tetrasubstituted carbon centre.
