Asymmetric 1,3βdipolar cycloadditions of chiral nitrones to 1βpropeneβ1,3βsultone (1) were investigated. Chiral nitrones 6aβe reacted with sultone 1 in toluene at 90 Β°C for 24β36 h to give the corresponding isoxazolidines in moderate yields with high regioselectivities and stereoselectivities. The diastereoselectivity of this reaction varied with the choice of dipolarophile and the steric demands of nitrones. When sultone 1 was allowed to react chiral nitrone 6e, a much better diastereoselectivity of up to 5.1:1 was observed.
