Аннотация:1,3-Dipolar cycloadditions afforded fast access to isoxazolidines bearing N-alkyl or N-benzyl substituents. The electronic properties of the substituents in the nitrones define the activity of the dipoles and modulate diastereoselectivity in the non-catalyzed reactions. Using a chiral one-point binding ruthenium Lewis acid catalyst, products were obtained in good yields and with excellent regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity.
