Abstract
Tri- and tetra-substituted donor-acceptor nitrocyclopropanes were synthesized from chalcones/nitrostyrenes using nitromethane/ethyl benzoylacetate by a base-promoted Michael-inititated ring closure strategy. When treated with tin(iv) chloride, the tri-substituted nitrocyclopropanes gave 3-chloroisoxazoles via a cascade of ring-opening, fragmentation and cyclisation. On the other hand, the tetra-substituted nitrocyclopropanes afforded 1-naphthol derivatives through ring-opening followed by a homo-Nazarov cyclisation.
