Hypoiodite Mediated Synthesis of Isoxazolines from Aldoximes and Alkenes Using Catalytic KI and Oxone as the Terminal Oxidant.

Isoxazolines can be efficiently synthesized in good yields via a hypoiodite mediated catalytic oxidative cyclization of aldoximes and alkenes. This reaction involves active iodine species generated in situ from catalytic amounts of KI and Oxone.
