Abstract
(Z)-Propargylic oxime ethers derived from α,β-unsaturated aldehydes were converted to the corresponding 2,3,6-trisubstituted pyridine oxides in moderate to acceptable yields with high regioselectivity. The reaction proceeds via a tandem thermal [2,3] rearrangement, 4π electrocyclization, and ring expansion.
