Abstract

A novel N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC)-catalyzed C-N bond formation by the reaction of α,β-unsaturated aldehydes and nitrosobenzene to N-phenylisoxazolidin-5-ones, followed by an acid-catalyzed esterification and Bamberger-like rearrangement in a mild one-pot protocol leads to N-p-methoxyphenyl (N-PMP) protected β-amino acid esters.
