REGIO- AND STEREOSELECTIVE 1,3-DIPOLAR CYCLOADDITION REACTIONS BETWEEN ARYLIDENEACETONES AND STABILIZED AZOMETHINE YLIDES OBTAINED FROM NINHYDRIN AND INDENOQUINOXALINONES

Abstract
Stabilized azomethine ylides, generated in situ from proline/sarcosine and ninhydrin or indenoquinoxalinones, underwent 1,3-dipolar
cycloaddition at the activated double bond of arylideneacetones, leading predominantly to endo-spiro adducts. These products formed as
a result of addition between the less substituted carbon atom of azomethine ylide and the most electrophilic site of the dipolarophile.
