Abstract

Boron trifluoride etherate mediates an intramolecular hydroalkoxylation/hydrothioalkoxylation of nitrogen-tethered alkenes providing five-membered thiazolidine, six-membered 1,4-oxazines (morpholines) and tetrahydro-2H-1,4-thiazines (thiomorpholines), and seven-membered 1,4-oxazepanes in good yields.
