Abstract

Benzo [e]-1, 3-oxazin-2-imine-4-ones (3) were synthesized by cyclocarbonylation of o- iodophenols with carbodiimides in the presence of a catalytic amount of a palladium catalyst and 1, 4-bis (diphenylphosphino) butane under CO pressure. Product yields are dependent on the nature of the substrate, catalyst, solvent, and base as well as phosphine ligand. Reaction of o-iodophenols with unsymmetrical carbodiimides affords benzo [e]-1, 3-oxazin ...
