Reaction of β-nitroenones with thiophenol synthesis of 5-hydroxy-4-(phenylthio)-2-isoxazoline 2-oxides

Article abstract of DOI:10.1016/0040-4020(95)98697-G

A new synthesis of 2-isoxazoline 2-oxides starting from unsaturated nitro compounds is described. A facile and convenient preparation of β-alkyl substituted β-nitroenones and their conversion to β-nitrosulfides are recorded. Treatment of these compounds w
