Abstract
3-Methylpyrrolo[3,4-c]isoxazoles prepared by nitrile oxide cycloaddition, are deprotonated and condensed with aromatic aldehydes; N-O bond cleavage with Mo(CO)6 affords 3-enoyltetramic acids whilst with H2-catalyst further reduction to 3-acyltetramic acids is observed.
Key words
acyltetramic acid - isoxazole - cycloaddition - condensation - heterocycle

Similar treatment of 4b afforded the N-methyl derivative.

The reaction mixture was stirred for 1 min at 20 °C then heated under reflux for 2 h and immediately cooled in an ice bath. The resulting yellow crystals were filtered off and dried in vacuo (0.062 g, 66%); (Anal. Calcd for C14H11N3O4: C, 58.95; H, 3.89; N, 14.73%; [M+] 285.0750.
