Abstract

Cycloaddition of electron-rich chalcone epoxides with N-arylimines was efficiently catalyzed by tris(4-bromophenyl)aminium hexachloroantimonate producing poly-substituted 1,3-oxazolidine derivatives in good yield.

Key words

cation radical - cycloaddition - epoxides - N-arylimines - 1,3-oxazolidines
