A new and appropriate synthesis for hexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione derivatives has been developed starting from 3-sulfolene. The epoxidation of 2-ethyl/pheny1-3a,4,7,7a-tetrahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3-(2H)-dione and then the opening of the epoxide with nucleophiles gave hexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione derivatives. Amino and triazole derivatives of hexahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3(2H)-dione were synthesized from the formed product by the opening reaction of the epoxide with sodium azide. Hydroxyl analogues were obtained from cis-hydroxylation of 2-ethyl/pheny1-3a,4,7,7atetrahydro-1H-isoindole-1,3-(2H)-dione. The hydroxyl groups were converted to acetate.
