“…Numerous isoxazoline derivatives have been developed as pharmaceuticals, veterinary drug and agrochemicals, [11–16] such as human leukocyte elastase inhibitors, [17] papaya ringspot virus inhibitors ( 6 ), [18] glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase inhibitors ( 5 ), [19] antifungal agents ( 3 ), [20] anti‐HIV agents, [21] anticancer agents ( 4 ), [22,23] herbicides ( 2 ), [24] and insecticides ( 1 ; Figure 1 ) [25–27] . Additionally, polysubstituted isoxazolines as versatile intermediates exhibit superior applications in organic synthesis [28–40] . Accordingly, not surprisingly, numerous synthetic approaches leading to an isoxazoline nucleus have been developed, principally consisting of the cycloaddition from 1,3‐dicarbonyl intermediates and hydroxylamine or from modified three‐carbon 1,3‐electrophilic intermediates of 1,3‐dicarbonyl compounds, including β‐alkylthioenones, enamino ketones, ynones, and α,β‐unsaturated ketones [41–46] .…”
