Intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions of norbornadiene-tethered nitrile oxides.
Efficient routes to the synthesis of norbornadiene-tethered nitrile oxides have been developed, and their intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions were studied. The cycloadditions occurred in good yields for a variety of substrates and were found to be highly regio- and stereoselective, giving single regio- and stereoisomers in most cases.
