Abstract
Heterocyclic compounds are crucial starting reagents and intermediates, or they are direct precursors of target chemicals and/or bio-pharmacological active compounds. Today, they are used in the total synthesis of natural products, in drugs or herbicides, and agrochemical preparation. Developing synthetic strategies targeting isoxazoles is a recurrent aim in preparative chemistry. In particular, five-membered heterocycles such as isoxazoles and isoxazolines are easily formed in a two steps or by a ‘one-pot’ procedure, by reacting aryl nitrile oxides with a variety of enolates of carbonyl compounds (i.e., aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids), followed by aromatization. Such a methodology was found to be selective and versatile allowing the preparation of pharmacologically active isoxazoles in high yields.
