Abstract

A gold-catalyzed [4 + 1] heterocyclization of nonactivated alkyne and hydroxamic acids provides 5-methyl-1,4,2-dioxazoles. This method offers high efficiency, simple operation, mild reaction conditions, and good functional group compatibility. Moreover, gram-scale synthesis and synthetic application toward bioactive molecular skeletons have been realized.
