“…1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of nitrile oxides with nitriles [14] and azetine [15] has been reported. The most popular strategy for the synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazoles is the O-acylation of amidoximes using activated carboxylic acid derivatives such as benzoyl cyanides, [16] esters, [17,18] anhydrides, [19,20] acid chlorides [21,22] and carboxylic acids, [23] followed by intramolecular cyclodehydration. Another method for the synthesis of 1,2,4-oxadiazole derivatives is the reaction of amidoxime with aldehydes for the synthesis of 4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles, followed by oxidative dehydrogenation with chemical oxidants [24,25] or electrochemical oxidation methods.…”
