Abstract

I2 promotes a metal-free domino protocol for the one-pot synthesis of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles in good yields via oxidative cleavage of C(sp2)-H or C(sp)-H bonds, followed by cyclization and deacylation. The use of K2CO3 is an essential factor in the cyclization and the C-C bond cleavage. This procedure offers good functional group compatibility.
