Paul Savage %J Beilstein Journal of Organic Chemistry %D 2012 %I %R 10.3762/bjoc.8.67 %X An aryl substrate with dual functionality consisting of a nitrile oxide and a pinacolyl boronate ester was prepared by mild hypervalent iodine oxidation (diacetoxyiodobenzene) of the corresponding aldoxime, without decomposition of the boronate functionality. The nitrile oxide was trapped in situ with a variety of dipolarophiles to yield aryl isoxazolines with the boronate ester function intact and available for subsequent reaction. %K dipolar cycloaddition %K heterocycle %K nitrile oxide %K hypervalent iodine oxidation %K pinacol boronic acid esters %U http://dx.doi.org/10.3762/bjoc.8.67
