Abstract
With this short review we would like to describe our work on isocyanide-mediated multicomponent reactions using the 1,3-dipolar species nitrile N-oxides and nitrile imines as electrophilic inputs. Our goal is to show the potentiality of these transformations, elucidate the mechanisms of the reactions, demonstrate the versatility, and highlight the potentiality of this chemistry.
