title: Facile synthesis of spiroisoquinolines based on photocycloaddition of isoquinoline-1,3,4-trione with oxazoles.
abstract: Photocycloaddition of isoquinoline-1,3,4-trione and 5-methoxyoxazoles affords spiroisoquinolineoxetanes with high regio- and diastereoselectivity. The spiroisoquinolineoxetanes can be conveniently converted into novel spiroisoquinolineoxazoline derivatives through acid catalyzed sequential reactions.
