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.

A transition-metal-free approach to the alkylation/arylation of benzoxazole was developed by employing Tf2O-activated-amide as the alkylating/arylating reagent. The mild reaction conditions, and particularly insensitivity to air and water, further enhance the synthetic potential in pharmaceutical synthesis. (Figure presented.).

Halogen bonding catalysis has recently gained increasing attention as a powerful tool to activate organic molecules. However, the variety of the catalyst structure has been quite limited so far. Herein, we report the first example of the use of an iodoalkyne as a halogen bond donor catalyst. By using an iodoalkyne bearing a pentafluorophenyl group as a catalyst, thioamides were efficiently activated and reacted with 2-aminophenol to generate benzoxazoles in good yield. Mechanistic studies, including 13C NMR spectroscopic analysis and several control experiments, provided concrete evidence that this catalytic activation is based on halogen bonding. Thus, the results obtained in this study demonstrate that iodoalkynes can serve as a new scaffold for future development of halogen bonding catalysis.
