Abstract

Rh2(Piv)4 catalyzes a convenient gram-scale method for the preparation of 2-halo-2H-azirine-2-carboxylic acid esters and amides from 5-heteroatom-substituted 4-haloisoxazoles. In addition, rhodium catalysis is successfully applied in the synthesis of azirine-2-carboxylates from non-halogenated 5-alkoxyisoxazoles.
