44. Magnesium-mediated 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of nitrones to 2-propen-1-ol was reported to give the corresponding cis-isoxazolidines diastereoselectively. The present our result that 2a and 2b diastereoselectively afforded the trans-isoxazolidines 4Aa and 4Ab, respectively, showed the opposite diastereoselection. See: a) S. Kanemasa, T. Tsuruoka, E.

48. 19 On the other hand, the equilibrium was established within 15 min at 50°C. These observations indicate at least that Z-2b was smoothly supplied at higher temperature via isomerizaion of E-2b when Z-2b was consumed by the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition through the endo-transition state as shown in Fig. 4.
49. The reaction using a N,N-dimethylamide-substituted nitrone instead of the N,N-dibenzylamide-substituted nitrone 2c or N,N-diisopropylamide-substituted nitrone 2d also gave the corresponding 3,5-cis-isoxazolidine diastereoselectively in 32% yield with the enantioselectivity of 61% ee under the same reaction conditions of Entry 1 in Table 2, which might imply that even the N,N-dimethylamide moiety is bulky enough to avoid the chelation to zinc metal to be subject to the exo-transition state in Fig. 5.

64. The stereochemistry of the obtained nitrone 2b was assigned based on the reported data of α-alkoxycarbonyl-N-alkylnitrones: a) Y. Inouye, J. Hara, H. Kakisawa, Chem. Lett. 1980, 1407.

66. During the optimization for the catalytic reaction, a small amount of 4Ac was obtained by chance using N-methylmorpholine N-oxide as an additive instead of pyridine N-oxide. By the racemic reaction promoted by magnesium, the trans-isoxazoline 4Ac was not obtained.
