A novel synthetic route was developed for the construction of isoxazolin-5-one glucosides using a cascade reaction. An X-ray crystal structure analysis of a isoxazolin-5-one glucoside confirmed the structure and stereochemistry of the heterocycle. The properties of the 伪- and 尾-anomers of the isoxazolin-5-one glucosides were compared. The first synthesis of 2-[6鈥?(3鈥?nitropropanoyl)-尾-d-glucopyranosyl]-3-isoxazolin-5-one was realized by direct enzymatic esterification without need of further protective groups.
