The 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of  nitrones, a kind of 1,3-dipole to unsaturated (C–C double or triple bond) compounds is one of the useful synthetic method for preparing isoxazole, dihydro- and tetrahedron-isoxazole derivatives.  Particularly, the nitrone–olefin 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition is a powerful reaction in that it can create as many as three new contiguous stereogenic centers in a single step.

Kita and coworkers reported lipase-catalyzed domino kinetic resolution of alpha-hydroxynitrones/intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition for the asymmetric total synthesis of (–)-rosmarinecine.[1] A domino reaction of the cyclic nitrone with the acyl donors in the presence of Candida antarctica lipase, fraction B underwent the kinetic resolution of cyclic nitrone, and subsequent intramolecular 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition to gave the corresponding products as single enantio- and diasteromer (91% ee).

Nagasawa and coworkers reported an enantioselective total synthesis of batzelladine A  based upon a strategy involving successive 1,3-dipolar cycloadditions.[2]  The 1,3-diploar cycloaddition reaction between 10 and the ester proceeded stereoselectively to give the isoxazolidine 12 as a single diastereomer.
