In the presence of enantiopure organocatalysts, 1-cycloalkene-1-carboxaldehydes and various nitrones furnished fused isoxazolidines. Thus, some chiral pyrrolidinium salts catalyzed the formation of such cycloadducts in high diastereoand enantioselectivity (up to 92% ee). The predominant diastereomer, the exo one, was mostly obtained in excellent diastereoselectivity (> 99:1 dr). Furthermore, after recrystallization of one of the cycloadducts, this was obtained enantiomerically pure (> 99% ee). The absolute configuration of one of the cycloadducts was determined.
