Abstract

C-Benzoyl-N-phenylnitrone (Ia) reacts with dihydrofuran derivatives (2,3-dihydro- and 2,5-dihydrofuran, 2,5-dimethoxy- and 2,5-diacetoxy-2,5-dihydrofuran) via 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to give diastereoisomeric pair of exo- and endo- cycloadducts. The endo-exo stereoselectivity of the reaction is discussed. Cycloaddition of C,N-diphenylnitrone (Ib) with 2,3-dihydrofuran is also described. The cycloaddition kinetics have been studied with the nitrone Ia and non-substituted dihydrofurans.
