Article abstract of DOI:10.1134/S1070428011050095

By condensation of 1-amino-2-hydroxynaphthalene with furoyl chloride in 1-methyl-2-pyrrolidone 2-(2-furyl)naphtho[1,2-d]oxazole was synthesized and brought into electrophylic substitution reactions: nitration, bromination, sulfonation, formylation, and acylation. The substituent commonly was introduced into the position 5 of the furan ring, but at the nitration and bromination electrophilic attack was directed both at the furan ring and the naphthalene fragment.
