Synthesis of Δ2-1,3-oxazolines and Δ2-1,3-oxazines using potassium fluoride on alumina

Potassium fluoride (40%) on alumina was used as a basic reagent for the ring closure of N-(β- or γ-haloalkyl)amides to give Δ2-1,3-oxazolines and Δ2-1,3-oxazines, respectively. Various 2-alkyl and 2-aryl derivatives were synthesized in moderate to high yield under relatively mild conditions (KF/Al2O3, solvent, room temperature). The procedure also facilitated simple workup and purification of the products. New compounds synthesized by this method are: 5-bromomethyl-2-phenyl-Δ2-1,3-oxazoline, 4,4-dimethyl-2-vinyl-Δ2-1,3-oxazoline, and 5-methylene-2-phenyl-Δ2-1,3-oxazine. The last compound represents the first authentic example of a 5-functionally substituted oxazine without substitution in the 4- or the 6-position.

Ultrasound-Accelerated, Concise, and Highly Efficient Synthesis of 2-Oxazoline Derivatives Using Heterogenous Calcium Ferrite Nanoparticles and Their DFT Studies

A rapid and operationally simple approach for synthesising biologically relevant 2-oxazoline derivatives has been developed through highly efficient ultrasound-promoted coupling reactions of thioamides and amino alcohols using calcium ferrite nanoparticles as heterogeneous catalysts. The major advantage of using ultrasound irradiation lies in the drastic reduction of reaction time as compared with conventional stirring. Furthermore, quantum chemical investigations for the synthesised 2-oxazoline derivatives have been carried out at the DFT/B3LYP/6-311 + G (d, p) level of theory to predict the optimized geometry. The molecular properties such as bond lengths, bond orders, Milliken charges, frontier molecular orbitals, global reactivity descriptors, molecular electrostatic potential map, and thermodynamic parameters of all the compounds have also been reported at the same level of theory.

A mild and efficient synthesis of 2-oxazolines via transamidation- cyclodehydrosulfurisation of thioamides with 2-aminoethanol

Transamidation of thioamides with 2-aminoethanol, followed by cyclodehydrosulfurisation of the resultant N-(β-hydroxyethyl)thioamides, has been utilised for the mild and efficient synthesis of 2-oxazolines. The developed protocol was found to be of general applicability. Georg Thieme Verlag KG Stuttgart · New York.

Synthesis of 2-oxazolines via boron esters of N-(2-hydroxyethyl) amides

A new, convenient, one-pot process is presented for the synthesis of 2-oxazolines in high yields (75-94%) via boron esters of N-(2-hydroxyethyl) amides. The procedure involves thermolysis of the boron esters at 240-260 °C, in the presence of solid CaO as an acid scavenger and allows the preparation of oxazolines from hydroxyethyl amides of aliphatic and aromatic monocarboxylic acids.

Generation of cyclic ketene-N,X-acetals (X = O, S) from 2-alkyl-1,3-oxazolines and 2-alkyl-1,3-thiazolines. Reactions with acid chlorides, 1,3-diacid chlorides and N-(chlorocarbonyl) isocyanate

2-Alkyl-1,3-oxazolines, 2-alkyl-1,3-thiazolines, and the corresponding cyclic ketene-N,X-acetals (X = O, S) derived from them were reacted with monoacid chlorides, diacid chlorides, triacid chlorides. A series of these carbon-carbon bond-forming reactions and cyclizations to both substituted 2,3-dihydrooxazolo[3,2-a]pyridine-5,7-diones and 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-a] pyridine-5,7-diones proceeded under mild reaction conditions. Cyclic ketene-N,X-acetal intermediates play important roles in all these reactions. Related cyclizations with N-(chlorocarbonyl) isocyanate formed substituted 2,3-dihydrooxazolo[3,2-c]pyrimidine-5,7-diones and 2,3-dihydrothiazolo[3,2-c] pyrimidine-5,7-diones.

Lewis acid-catalyzed asymmetric diels-alder reactions using chiral sulfoxide ligands: chiral 2-(arylsulfinylmethyl)-1,3-oxazoline derivatives.

New chiral sulfoxide-1,3-oxazoline ligands have been developed as chiral ligands for Lewis acid-catalyzed asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions. The use of chiral sulfinyl 1,3-oxazoline ligands in copper(II)-catalyzed asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions provided an endo cycloadduct as a major product with moderate enantioselectivity. A rationale is proposed for the mechanism of the asymmetric induction.
