Heteroaryl substituted analogs of antirhnoviral (A), was prepared by a convergent approach. 3-Nitrophenyl-5-bromooromethylisoxazoles 5a-b were synthesized by [3+2] cycloaddition of 3-(benzoyloxy)-propyne 2 to in situ generated arylnitrile oxides followed by deprotection of cycloadducts 3a-b and bromination of the resulting alcohols 4a-b. Coupling of 3-nitrophenyl-5-bromooromethylisoxazoles (5a-b) with 4-[5-(2-alkyl-2H-tetrazolyl)]phenols (6a-d) in N-methylpyrrolidinone under mild conditions afforded a new series of 2-alkyl-5-{4-[1-(3-nitrophenyl-5-isoxazolyl)methyloxy]phenyl}-2H-tetrazoles (7a-h) in high yields. The structures of the synthesized compounds were confirmed by their ¹H NMR, Mass spectral, and Elemental Analysis data.
