Regio- and stereoselectivity of captodative olefins in 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions. A DFT/HSAB theory rationale for the observed regiochemistry of nitrones
Captodative olefins 1-acetylvinyl carboxylates proved to be highly regioselective dipolarophiles in 1,3-dipolar cycloadditon to propionitrile oxide, arylphenylnitrile imines, diazoalkanes, and nitrones to yield the corresponding 5-substituted heterocycles
Highly selective 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of captodative olefins 1-acetylvinyl carboxylates to diverse dipoles
Regioselective 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of captodative 1-acetylvinyl p-nitrobenzoyloxy (1a) with propionitrile oxide, diphenylnitrile imine and diazoalkanes provided the corresponding 5-acetyl- isoxazoles and pyrazoles. Evidence to support the formation
