An efficient procedure for the synthesis of benzoxazoles by the heteroannulation of nitriles and o-aminophenols in the presence of a catalytic amount of copper(II) trifluoromethanesulfonate, has been developed. This method represents a practical and attractive alternative for the synthesis of both 2-arylbenzoxazoles and 2-alkylbenzoxazoles.

Alum (KAl(SO4)212H2O) performs as a novel catalyst for the synthesis of 2-arylbenzothiazoles and 2-arylbenzoxazole from o-aminothiophenol and o-aminophenol with various substituted aldehydes in good to excellent isolated yields (8595%) using water as a solvent at ambient temperature. Several solvents were examined for this reaction; however, in terms of reaction yield and time, water was found to be the optimum solvent. The remarkable advantages offered by this method are an inexpensive and easily available catalyst, a simple procedure, mild conditions, much faster (6090 min) reactions, and good to excellent yields of products.

Diphenoxo bridged dinuclear zinc complexes, [Zn2(Phimp)2(Cl)2] (1) (PhimpH = (E)-2-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol), [Zn2(Me-Phimp)2(Cl)2] (2) (Me-PhimpH = (E)-4-methyl-2-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol), [Zn2(OMe-Phimp)2(Cl)2] (3) (OMe-PhimpH = (E)-4-methoxy-2-((2-phenyl-2-(pyridin-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol), were synthesized and spectroscopically characterized. The molecular structure of 2 was determined using X-ray crystallography. DFT and TD-DFT calculations were performed to optimize the molecular geometry, interpret the spectroscopic results and investigate the contribution of the ligands to the redox properties of the complexes. Phenoxyl radical complexes were generated in solution via chemical oxidation using ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) and the redox properties were examined through cyclic voltammetric measurements. The hydrolysis of para-nitrophenylphosphate (PNPP) by all the dinuclear zinc complexes was investigated to mimic phosphatase activity. Catalytic oxidative cyclization by these complexes and synthesis of benzoxazole derivatives was investigated.

A novel polymer supported copper complex is prepared by the immobilization of copper iodide on chemically modified polyacrylonitrile and its application in heterogeneous catalysis is described. The catalyst was prepared by easy method via synthetic modification of Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) using ethylene diamine followed by the complexation with CuI. After characterization, this complex was explored as a green and efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of 2-benzoxazoles from 2-haloanilides. The reaction was performed without adding additional ligand and the catalyst shows activity over a broad range of substrates with quantitative product yields. The catalyst was easily recovered by simple filtration and reused successfully for further cycle.

An unexpected cleavage of the Csp3-CF3 bond of CF3-hydrobenzoxazoles has been disclosed, affording a range of 2-aryl benzoxazoles under metal-free and redox-neutral conditions. This transformation has demonstrated broad substrate scope and good compatibility of functional groups. 2-Aryl benzothiazole and 2-aryl benzoimidazole could be smoothly assembled in the same manner. On the basis of preliminary mechanistic studies, base initiated and aromatization driven β-carbon elimination was considered to be the key step for the formation of 2. This reaction offers an alternative, facile, and sustainable route to access important 2-aryl benzoxazole motifs.

A highly efficient method for the selective formal C-H/C-H cross-coupling of azoles and (hetero)arenes was established through arylsulfonium intermediates under transition-metal catalysis, which produced a variety of 2-(hetero)aryl azoles in good to excellent yields. Advantages of the reaction included mildness, a good functional group tolerance, a wide range of substrates, a high regio- and chemoselectivity, one-pot procedures, and the late-stage functionalization of complex molecules without the use of oxidants, offering a promising strategy for the transition-metal-catalyzed C-H arylation of azoles.

The iron-catalyzed hydrogen transfer strategy has been applied to the redox condensation of o-hydroxynitrobenzene with alcohol, leading to the formation of benzoxazole derivatives. A wide range of 2-substituted benzoxazoles were synthesized in good to excellent yields without the addition of an external redox agent. A series of control experiments provided a plausible mechanism. Furthermore, the reaction system was successfully extended to the synthesis of benzothiazoles and benzimidazoles.

Elemental sulfur (S8) was found to be an excellent stoichiometric oxidant to promote oxidative condensation of 2-aminophenols with a wide range of aldehydes, including aliphatic aldehyde such as cyclohexanecarboxaldehyde. The reactions were catalyzed by sodium sulfide in the presence of DMSO as an additive. The benzoxazole products were obtained in satisfactory yields. The reaction conditions could be applied to larger syntheses (10–50 mmol).

A reusable thermal activated NHC precursor ionic liquid catalyst ([BMIm]2[WO4]) has been prepared and developed for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocycles such as benzoxazinones and benzoazoles through imines activation. [BMIm]2[WO4] exhibited the good activity for the base-free condensation and oxidative NHC catalysis tandem under air atmosphere. The catalyst can be recovered and reused for at least five runs in gram scale synthesis without any decrease in catalytic activity. Furthermore, the control experiments demonstrated that the reaction involved formation of aromatic aldimines, NHC-catalyzed oxidative formation of imidoyl azoliums and intramolecular cyclization to generate the product.

A one-pot regioselective method for the preparation of 2-arylbenzoxazoles from N-arylbenzamides has been developed using iron(III)-catalyzed bromination of the aryl ring, followed by copper(I)-catalyzed O-cyclization with the benzamide side chain. In contrast, reaction of N-arylthiobenzamides with N-bromosuccinimide and iron triflimide led directly to the isolation of the corresponding 2-arylbenzothiazoles via intramolecular C–S bond formation. Mechanistic and control experiments suggest that in this case, bromination occurs at the sulfur atom, resulting in a reactive intermediate that can undergo electrophilic aromatic substitution and S-cyclization. The scope of both processes was explored yielding a range of structural analogues, including a pharmaceutically active compound for the treatment of Duchenne muscular dystrophy and an affinity agent of the amyloid-beta protein in Alzheimer's disease.
