Reactions were carried out in oven-dried glassware under an atmosphere of dry argon. All reactions were magnetically stirred and monitored by analytical thin-layer chromatography using aluminum-backed 0.2 mm silica gel 60 F-254 plates. Visualization was accomplished by UV light (254 nm), or by staining with potassium permanganate. Flash chromatography was performed with silica gel 60 (230 400 mesh). 1 MR and 13 C MR spectra were recorded at ambient temperature with the residual solvent peaks as internal standards. The line positions of multiplets are given in ppm (δ) and the coupling constants (J) are given as absolute values in ertz. Infrared spectra were recorded with a FT-IR spectrometer and reported as cm -1. All melting points were recorded uncorrected. igh-resolution mass spectra (RMS) data were obtained as specified. Yields refer to chromatographically and spectrographically pure compounds, unless otherwise noted. 1d 3-Phenyl-2-oxa-3-aza-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene (1d). To a solution of nitrosobenzene (150 mg, 1.40 mmol) in DCM (3 ml) at 0 o C was added 1,3-cyclohexadiene (0.267 ml, 2.80 mmol), and the reaction mixture was stirred at 0 o C for 30 min. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the crude product was purified using silica gel column chromatography (hexanes:etac, 3:1) to afford 1d as a white solid (247 mg, 87% yield). mp: 65 67 o C; IR (neat): 3054, 2986, 1595, 1486, 1421, 1265, 738, 705 cm -1 ; 1 MR (600 Mz, CDCl 3 ) δ 7.23 7.21 (m, 2 ), 7.02 7.01 (m, 2 ), 6.95 6.92 (m, 1 ), 6.59 (ddd, J = 8.0, 5.9, 1.8 z, 1 ), 6.15 (ddd, J = 7.8, 5.7, 1.5 z, 1 ), 4.72 4.70 (m, 1 ), 4.45 4.43 (m, 1 ), 2.33 2.29 (m, 1 ), 2.27 2.22 (m, 1 ), 1.62-1.56 (m, 1 ), 1.41 1.36 (m, 1 ); 13 C MR (150 Mz, CDCl 3 ) δ 152.5, 131.7, 130.1, 128.5, 122.1, 117.6, 69.3, 56.6, 24.1, 21.5.

To a solution of nitrosobenzene (100 mg, 0.93 mmol) in DCM (2 ml) at rt was added 1,3-cyclopentadiene (0.15 ml, 1.86 mmol) and stirred for 30 min until nitrosobenzene was consumed (TLC analysis). Then methanol (3 ml) was added, followed by the addition of In(Tf) 3 (262 mg, 0.47 mmol). The mixture was stirred under Ar for 12 h, then solvent was removed under reduced pressure. Water and EtAc (3 + 5 ml) were added and separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtAc (3 x 5 ml). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over a 2 S 4, filtered and concentrated by rotary evaporation. The crude product was purified using silica gel column chromatography (hexanes:etac, 1:1) to afford 4a as a yellow oil (51.3 mg, 31% yield in two steps). 1 MR (600 Mz, DMS-d 6 ) δ 6.70 (d, J = 8.8 z, 2 ), 6.57 (d, J = 8.8 z, 2 ), 5.85 (br m, 2 ), 5.14 (d, J = 8.5 z, 1 ), 4.88 (d, J = 5.8 z, 1 ), 4.58 4.55 (m, 1 ), 4.18 4.15 (m, 1 ), 3.63 (s, 3 ), 2.66 (dt, J = 12.9, 7.3 z, 1 ), 1.29 (dt, J = 12.9, 5.9 z, 1 ); 13 C MR (150 Mz, DMS-d 6 ) δ 150.6, 142.4, 136.3, 133.7, 114.5, 113.6, 73.6, 57.2, 55.2, 41.8; RMS (ESI) [M + ] + C 12 16 2 calcd for 206.1176, found 206.1174. General procedure for In(Tf) 3 -assisted nucleophilic aromatic substitution of 1d with alcohols. A solution of cycloadduct 1d (50 mg, 0.27 mmol) in alcohol (2 ml) was treated with anhydrous In(Tf) 3 (75 mg, 0.13 mmol) and quickly heated to 70 o C. The reaction mixture was stirred under Ar until 1d was consumed (TLC analysis). Then the mixture was cooled to rt and concentrated in vacuo to a slurry. Water (3 ml) and EtAc (5 ml) were added and separated. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtAc (3 x 5 ml). The combined organic layers were washed with brine, dried over a 2 S 4 and filtered.
