Trichloroisocyanuric Acid Promoted Cascade Cyclization/Trifluoromethylation of Allylic Oximes: Synthesis of Trifluoromethylated Isoxazolines

Org Lett. 2017 Jan 20;19(2):376-379. doi: 10.1021/acs.orglett.6b03582. Epub 2017 Jan 9.

Abstract

Cheap and commercially available trichloroisocyanuric acid has been used to promote trifluoromethylation by using TMSCF3 as the trifluoromethyl source. The method provides a novel and efficient protocol for the construction of CF3-containing 4,5-dihydroisoxazoles from allylic oximes in good to excellent yields.
