Abstract

The synthesis of various 2-(hetero)aryloxazolines from nitriles and aminoalcohols has been achieved without metals and catalysts in good to excellent yields. The reaction tolerates many functional groups and allows the introduction of many important biologically active motifs such as azoles, ring-fused azoles, saturated heterocyclics, and amines.
