A lewis acid catalyzed annulation to 2,1-benzisoxazoles

We report here a new, atom economical annulation to 2,1-benzisoxazole scaffolds via the BF3·Et2O-catalyzed reaction of glyoxylate esters and nitrosoarenes. The developed method represents a convergent route to this compound class from previously unexplored inputs and provides a range of 2,1-benzisoxazoles in moderate to high yields under convenient conditions. Along with exploration of substrate scope, initial mechanistic investigation through 18O labeling and the synthesis of a reaction intermediate provides evidence for an unusual umpolung addition of glyoxylates to nitrosobenzenes with high O-selectivity, followed by a new type of Friedel-Crafts cyclization.

Hydroxamic acids are metal-chelating compounds that show important biological activity including anti-tumor effects. We have recently engineered the transketolase from Geobacillus stearothermopilus (TKgst) to convert benzaldehyde as a non-natur

First, electrosyntheses of phenylhydroxylamines in a flow cell fitted with porous cathode and two counter-electrodes are described.Good yields are attained when electrolyses are performed in buffered aqueous organic or aqueous media.Reaction between p-toluenesulfonyl chloride and N-(3-chloro-4-methylphenyl)hydroxylamine, at the outlet of the cell, leads to a N-sulfonylated phenylhydroxylamine (N-addition); hydrolysis of this latter occurs in aqueous basic media to give the corresponding nitrosobenzene and sodium p-toluenesulfinate.As a result, some arenesulfinic acids have been directly obtained after reaction of arenesulfonyl chloride with sodium salt of 3-hydroxylaminobenzoate and 3-hydroxylaminobenzenesulfonate in aqueous phosphate buffer (pH 7).Next, an examination of the reaction of p-toluenesulfonyl chloride with phenylhydroxylamine in organic solvent, in the presence of triethylamine or of sodium carbonate, shows the importance of experimental conditions to control N-addition or O-addition.Addition of some arenesulfonyl chlorides to phenylhydroxylamine, in ether or dichloromethane containing sodium carbonate, gives only the N-sulfonylated phenylhydroxylamines.These compounds lead to nitrosobenzene and arenesulfinate anions in aqueous basic media.Aliphatic or aromatic sulfinic acids can be prepared in this way.
