Synthesis of 1,2,4-Oxadiazolines through Deoxygenative Cyclization of N-Vinyl-α,β-Unsaturated Nitrones with in Situ Generated Nitrile Oxides from Hydroxamoyl Chlorides

tert-Butyl Nitrite (TBN)-Enabled Tandem C-H Bond Oxidation/C-N Bond Cleavage/[3+2] Cycloaddition of 1-Nitromethyltetrahydroisoquinoline Derivatives: Construction of Multifunctionalized Isoxazole and Isoxazoline Skeletons

A TBN-enabled tandem C-H bond oxidation/C-N bond cleavage/[3+2] cycloaddition of 1-nitromethyltetrahydroisoquinolines was realized, constructing a series of multifunctionalized isoxazole and isoxazoline skeletons in the presence of alkynes and alkenes, respectively. Various functional groups were smoothly tolerated, and the mechanistic study revealed that the construction of isoxazole and isoxazoline rings is mediated by the in situ generated nitrile oxides.

Desymmetric [3+3] Cyclization of p-Quinamines for the Synthesis of 1,2,4-Oxadiazines and Hydroquinoxalines

General and efficient strategies for highly diastereoselective synthesis of divergent heterocyclic scaffolds through desymmetric [3+3] cycloaddition of p-quinamines with 1,3-dipole surrogates hydroximoyl halides and α-halohydroxamates have been developed. This synthetic protocol provided a variety of heterocyclic architectures containing 1,2,4-oxadiazine and hydroquinoxaline skeletons in good yields with a wide substrate scope.
