Abstract

The sequential use of iron and palladium catalysts in an uninterrupted four-step sequence allows the synthesis of trisubstituted isoxazoles from readily available propargylic alcohols. The advantages of such a strategy are illustrated by the high overall yields and the time-saving procedure.
