A donor-acceptor cyclopropene as a dipole source for a silver(Ⅰ) catalyzed asymmetric catalytic [3+3]-cycloaddition with nitrones

摘要

Silver(Ⅰ)-catalyzed asymmetric formal [3+3]-cycloaddition of nitrones with a donor-acceptor cyclopropene, formed in situ from dirhodium acetate-catalyzed dinitrogen extrusion/intramolecular cyclization of enoldiazoacetates, effectively generates 3,6-dihydro-1,2-oxazine derivatives in high yield and with exceptional stereocontrol.
