2H-1, 4–Benzoxazine is a useful prochiral cyclic imine [2-4] for the synthesis of chiral cyclic amines, and especially 3-aryl-2H-1, 4–benzoxazines are found to have an anti-inflammatory activity [5]. The 2H-1, 4–benzoxazines have been classically prepared by base [6] or acid [7] catalyzed intramolecular condensation of 2-aminophenoxyketones or directly by the reaction of 2-aminophenol with phenacyl bromide derivatives under basic condition [8-10]. ...
