In similar reactions with 4-vinyl-1,4-dihydro-2H-3,1-benzoxazin-2-one, a cyclic allyl carbamate, C-allylation took place to yield a series of spiro[isoxazole-4,3-quinolin]-5-ones in high yields. Regio-selective N-versus C-allylation is illustrated to occur in an inter-versus intra-molecular fashion. The structure and stereochemistry of these products are determined by NMR spectroscopy and further confirmed by X-ray crystallography. This work offers an excellent method for the preparation of various substituted isoxazol-5-ones. This journal is ?
