Promoted by K2CO3 (2.0 equiv), the 1,3-dipolar [3+3] cycloaddition between 1, 4-benzodiazepinone-based nitrones and α-halohydroxamates processed smoothly under the mild reaction conditions and delivered structurally novel and complex cis or trans-configured d-edge-heterocycle-fused 1,4-benzodiazepinones in up to >99% isolated yield with >20:1 dr. The relative configuration of the title chemical entities was clearly identified with the use of X-ray single crystal structure analysis. The reaction mechanism was assumed to interpret the diastereoselective production of the obtained cis or trans-configured d-edge-heterocycle-fused 1, 4-benzodiazepinones.
