The regioselectivity of the 3-hydroxyisoxazole-5-ester 1 is studied with respect to O- versus N-alkylation. 3-O-Alkyl products 2 are highly favoured with benzyl, benzhydryl, and allyl bromide (≥ 91:9), in contrast to known uses of 5-alkyl-3-hydroxyisoxazoles or when methylation with diazomethane (or methyl iodide) is effected. Methoxymethylation leads to the N-substituted isoxazolinone 3e only. On reduction with DIBAH, the esters 2 afford 3-O-protected 3-hydroxyisoxazole-5-carbaldehydes 4 (75-98%). For removal of the benzyl protecting groups, three variations (HBr/HOAc, H2/ Pd/BaSO4, NBS/AIBN) were found useful with 5-ester, 5-formyl, and 5-hydroxymethyl derivatives. The free 3-hydroxy-5-carbaldehyde 9, the putative toxic metabolite of the GABA agonist muscimol, is prepared accordingly. The O-protected 3-hydroxyisoxazole-5-carbaldehydes 4 constitute versatile intermediates in various routes to analogues of CNS-active amino acids and can now be obtained in a highly efficient manner.
Condensation of muscimol or thiomuscimol with aminopyridazines yields GABA-A antagonists

Ten analogs of muscimol and thiomuscimol in which the amino function was delocalized in an amidinic system were prepared by N2 alkylation of 6-aryl-3- aminopyridazines with (chloromethyl)isoxazole or (chloromethyl)isothiazole derivatives. These muscimol a
