Abstract

The consecutive Sonogashira coupling of acid chlorides with terminal alkynes, followed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition under dielectric heating of in situ generated nitrile oxides from hydroximinoyl chlorides furnishes isoxazoles in moderate to good yields in the sense of a one-pot three-component reaction.
