Abstract

Various substituted benzisoxazoles have been prepared by a [3 + 2] cycloaddition of nitrile oxides and arynes. Both highly reactive intermediates, have been generated in situ by fluoride anion from readily prepared aryne precursors and chlorooximes. The reaction scope is quite general, affording a novel, direct route to functionalized benzisoxazoles under mild reaction conditions.
