β¦ Synopsis
Benzonitrile oxide cycloadds preferentially anti to the substituents of cis-3,5-di-X-cyclopentenes, where X = OMe, OAc, CCCPh, Br, Cl, and OH. Higher stereoselectivities are found for cis-2,5-di-X-2,5_dihydrofurans. The origins of these selectivities, and contrasts with azlic and cyclobutene analogs, are described.

Intramolecular nitrile oxide cycloaddition to functionalized furans occurs with complete regiochemical control but low diastereoselectivity. The poor reactivity of furan as 2 3Z component in the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition with nitrile oxide' greatly limited its practical use in this reaction. 2,3 Thi
