Graphical Abstract:



Abstract:
An array of 2-substituted-4,5-diphenyloxazoles were found to be cleaved to triacylamines and diacylamines (imides) using a reagent system composed of 3-chloroperbenzoic acid (MCPBA) and 2,2'-bipyridinium chlorochromate (BPCC). The 2-alkyl-4,5-diphenyloxazoles give imides (38-60%) as the predominant cleavage product while the 2-aryl-4,5-diphenyloxazoles give triacylamines (62-71%). Two mechanisms involving intermediates such as cyclic endoperoxides or oxachromacycles were proposed. An application of the oxidative cleavage to the multi-step synthesis of phoracantholide I seco acid is detailed.

Application of methodology toward synthesis of Phoracantholide-I seco acid
                                                                                          





 Highlights
A new method for the cleavage of 2,4,5-trisubstituted oxazoles to imides and triacylamines is detailed.

The oxidation system utilizes two reagents composed of a peroxide and oxochromium (VI).

Mechanisms are proposed for the oxidative cleavage reaction.

A synthesis of (±)-phoracantholide seco-acid is detailed.
