Silver-Assisted [3 + 2] Annulation of Nitrones with Isocyanides: Synthesis of 2,3,4-Trisubstituted 1,2,4-Oxadiazolidin-5-ones

A silver-assisted method for [3 + 2] annulation of nitrones with isocyanides has been developed. The developed protocol allows access to a variety of 2,3,4-trisubstituted 1,2,4-oxadiazolidin-5-one derivatives as single diastereomers in good to excellent yields using silver oxide as the catalyst and molecular oxygen as the terminal oxidant. A plausible mechanism involving a nucleophilic addition/cyclization/protodeargentation/oxidation pathway is proposed on the basis of experimental results.

Ketene. Part 21. Reactions of Heterocumulenes with Nitrones

Degradative and mass spectrometric evidence confirms the formation of the isoxazolidinones (2) from the reaction of cyano-t-butylketene with the N-alkyl nitrones (1), whilst the reaction with the N-phenyl nitrone (1d) gives the expected oxazolidinone (3b).Cyano-t-butylketene reacts with diphenyl nitrone to give the indolones (10a) and (10b).The reaction of phenyl isocyanate with diphenyl nitrone, and the N-alkyl nitrones (1a) and (1d) gives the normal 1,3-dipolar cycloadducts without rearrangement.Ethoxycarbonyl-t-butylketene reacts with the N-phenyl nitrone (1d) to give an oxazolidinone , but reaction with the N-alkyl nitrones (1) gives only fluorenone azine.This ketene reacts with diphenyl nitrone to give the anil (15) and the dihydroindole (16).
