“…Isoxazoles are heteroaromatic compounds that are commonly used as synthetic building blocks and can be found in natural products and pharmaceuticals 31. However, their syntheses via [3+2] cycloaddition reactions of alkenes/alkynes with nitrile oxides,32 and the reactions of hydroxylamine with 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds,33 α,β‐unsaturated carbonyl compounds34 and α,β‐unsaturated nitriles35 are hampered by the use of stoichiometric amounts of reagents, strong acids/bases, high reaction temperatures, prolonged reaction times and poor regioselectivity. Thus, the development of new methods for isoxazole synthesis is of importance in organic chemistry 36.…”
