A novel synthesis of 5,6-dihydro-2H-1,4-oxazin-2-ones by SeO2-promoted oxidative rearrangement of 2-alkyl- and 2-(arylmethyl)oxazolines is described. Yields are good to excellent (up to 94%) with the highest yields obtained for 2-arylmethyl- and 2-neopentyl-substituted oxazolines. This reaction provides convenient access to novel 5-aryl-substituted dihydrooxazinones in high yield. The latter compounds are important 'chiral glycine' synthons for asymmetric synthesis of α-amino acids. Since oxazolines are readily derived from carboxylic acids or their equivalents, this oxidative rearrangement constitutes an entry to synthesis of α-amino acids from carboxylic acids. A mechanism is proposed to account for the rearrangement involving a 'nitrilium to acylium' 1,2-migration.

The preparation of (3S,5R)-3,5-diphenylmorpholinone 1 and subsequent diastereoselective 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of its formaldehyde derived azomethine ylid is described.Removal of the chiral template furnishes α-phenyl proline derivatives.
α-Phenylglycinol as chiral auxiliary in diastereoselective Strecker synthesis of α-amino acids

The high diastereoselectivity achieved in Strecker synthesis using inexpensive α-phenylglycinol as chiral auxiliary and its facile removal by oxidative clearange make it an ideal choice for the large scale preparations of optically active α-amino acids specially α-arylglycines present abundantly in glycopeptide antibiotics. A number of chiral amino acids are synthesized following this method. Also molecular mechanics calculations are carried out to explain the observed diastereoselection.
