Abstract

A diverse set of isoxazoles, with activity in three different disease categories, was reduced asymmetrically from pro-chiral ketones to chiral alcohols using the Corey-Bakshi-Shibata methodology at the α, β, and γ positions relative to the C-5-methyl of the isoxazole. The experiments described provide an easy route to hydroxylated isoxazoles that represent the common CYP-450 3A4 metabolic site.
