Water Exclusion Reaction in Aqueous Media: Nitrone Formation and Cycloaddition in a Single Pot
journal contribution
posted on 2003-09-17, 00:00 authored by Amrita Chatterjee, Dilip Kumar Maiti, Pranab Kumar BhattacharyaThe formation of nitrone (a water exclusion reaction) in aqueous media using surfactant and subsequent cycloaddition in the same pot, a new
example of green chemistry, is reported. The control of regioselectivity favors the formation of trans-5-substituted isoxazolidine. This work
not only may lead to an environmentally benign system but also will provide a new aspect of reactions in water.
