(ethyl vinylether (8), 2,3-dihydrofuran (9), and 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran (10)) were investigated in water, in neat conditions, and in organic solvents. The cycloadditions do not require the use of catalysts and are highly endo diastereoselective, and in water the cyclic nitronates 13, 18, and 23 are converted into chromene derivatives via hydrolysis, decarboxylation, and acetalation reactions.
