A method for the generation of 5-isoxazolidinones with exocyclic phosphonium ylide functionalities via [2+3] cycloaddition of Ph3PCCO and aldonitrones has been developed and applied in the synthesis of 4-alkylidene-5-isoxazolidinones via Wittig olefination. The reaction proceeds by BPh3 catalysis under mild conditions and with a broad substrate scope. A reaction pathway involving the activation of the aldonitrone via interactions with the Lewis acid BPh3 is proposed.
