1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of N-methyl-substituted tricyclic imides.

The [3+2] cycloadditions of N-methyl derivatives of unsaturated imides with various nitrile oxides to yield new bridged isoxazoline derivatives with potential biological activity is described.

Reductive Heck reactions of N-methyl-substituted tricyclic imides.

The palladium-catalyzed hydroarylation of N-methyl-substituted tricyclic imides was studied in order to find a new stereoselective access to a series of new exo-aryl(hetaryl)-substituted tricyclic N-methylimides.
