Abstract

A novel synthesis of fused perfluoroalkylated 2,3-dihydroisoxazoles is achieved via oxa-Michael-aldol annulation between perfluoroalk-2-ynoates and N-hydroxyimides. This method provides a convenient route for the synthesis of pyrrolidin-2-one-fused perfluoroalkylated 2,3-dihydroisoxazoles in yields of up to 97%. Diverse and pharmaceutically attractive polycyclic scaffolds can be obtained rapidly and efficiently under these mild, catalyst-free conditions.
