A multicomponent Knoevenagel–aza‐Michael cyclocondensation (KaMC) reaction starting from Meldrum's acid has been developed with base‐sensitive N ‐Fmoc‐hydroxylamine. The reaction takes place under very mild basic conditions, providing a straightforward synthetic route to various unprecedented N ‐Fmoc‐isoxazolidin‐5‐ones. Subsequent chemoselective reductive cleavage of the N–O bond in the presence of Zn/AcOH allowed a short synthesis of the corresponding N ‐Fmoc‐β‐amino acids.
