Self-condensation of β-(isoxazol-5-yl) enamines under treatment with acetyl chloride and acids. Synthesis of novel 1,3-diisoxazolyl-1,3-dieneamines and 1,3,5-triisoxazolyl benzenes

Two directions for self-condensation of β-(isoxazol-5-yl) enamines under treatment with either acetyl chloride or acids were found leading to new 1,3-diisoxazolyl-1,3-dieneamines and 1,3,5-triisoxazolyl benzenes. The effect of solvent, acid, temperature and the reaction time on the ratio of reaction products were investigated. Trans-E-cis configuration of prepared 1,3-diisoxazolyl-1,3-dieneamines was unambiguously confirmed by 2D NMR spectra and X-ray analysis. A new mechanism of 1,3-diisoxazolyl-1,3-dieneamines formation was proposed.
