Abstract

3-Aryl-3a,4,11,11a-tetrahydroisoxazolo[5,4c]-1,6-benzodioxocines VIII were formed by a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of arylnitrile oxides to 2H,5H-1,6-benzodioxocine (III). The heterocycle VII afforded monoadducts IX, whereas dipolarophiles IV-VI do not yield cycloaddition products with nitrile oxides under the same reaction conditions. Irradiation of isoxazolines VIII, IX with UV light led to tarry products.
