Abstract
Oxyallyl cations are prepared in situ from readily available α-tosyloxy ketones and act as transient electrophilic partners in (3 + 3) cycloaddition with nitrones. Under mild conditions, this method provides a chemoselective and diastereoselective route to polysubstituted 1,2-oxazinanes. A stepwise process is proposed to rationalize the diastereoselectivity of this transformation.
