The first example of 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reactions of nitrones with arylallenes is described. C-Carbamoylnitrones react with the C1-C2 double bond of arylallenes affording the corresponding 4-methyleneisoxazolidines in good yields. N-Aryl-C,C-bis(methoxycarbonyl)nitrones usually gave rearranged products: mixtures of 4,5-dihydro-4-oxo-1H-benzo[b]azepine-2,2(3H)dicarboxylates and 4-oxo-1, 5-diarylpyrrolidine-2,2-dicarboxylates.
