Modern organic synthesis needs convenient starting
ylene chloride (3×10 mL); the organic extracts were combined
and dried with sodium sulfate. Then the solvent was removed to
give a pure crystalline product (the yields are given under the
1
reagents such as, e.g., an dihydroisoxazole ring. On the
one hand, this ring is fairly resistant to various modificaꢀ
tions in side chains, while on the other hand, desirable
functions can be imparted by transforming the central
structure at the final step of the synthesis. For this reason,
a search for new reactions and reagents suitable for conꢀ
struction of this heterocycle itself still remains topical.
In the present work, we propose to synthesize 5ꢀarylꢀ
scheme). The NMR spectra and melting points of compounds
