Abstract
Using electron-rich or electron-poor N-substituted oxazolidines as substrates, selective formation of either ammonium or oxonium ylides is possible in the presence of α-imino carbenes. As such, treatment of 5-membered oxazolidine precursors with N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazoles under dirhodium catalysis (2 mol%) affords the regiodivergent synthesis of either 8-membered 1,3,6- or 1,4,6-oxadiazocines upon the initial N or O reactivity with the carbene.

- 6 This aspect was probed later in the manuscript with the reactivity of 1a with oxazolidine 2C′ carrying a tosyl EWG in place of the p-tolyl moiety of 2A. In the presence of this protected and thus less Lewis basic N-atom, dirhodium catalysis could occur at 40 °C only to afford 4aC′ in 93% NMR yield.

- 13 General Procedure for Ring ExpansionIn a screw-cap vial containing oxazolidine 2A (0.2 mmol, 1 equiv) and N-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazole 1a (0.3 mmol, 1.5 equiv), Rh2(OPiv)4 (0.004 mmol, 0.02 equiv) in CH2Cl2 (0.8 mL) were added. The reaction mixture is stirred during 15 h at 60 °C. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure, and the crude residue was purified on chromatography column over SiO2 (pentane/Et2O, 9:1 to 8:2).
