Ruthenium-Catalyzed Synthesis of Benzoxazoles Using Acceptorless Dehydrogenative Coupling Reaction of Primary Alcohols with 2-Aminophenol under Heterogeneous Conditions
摘要:
An efficient ruthenium-catalyzed acceptorless dehydrogenative coupling reaction of primary alcohols with 2-aminophenol for one-pot synthesis of benzoxazoles is introduced. The phosphine-functionalized magnetic nano-particles (PFMNPs; Fe3O4@SiO2@PPh2) as a magnetic recyclable phosphorus ligand in the presence of Ru2Cl4(CO)(6) was found to be an efficient heterogeneous catalytic system for promotion of the designed protocol. The reaction was carried out efficiently with a variety of substrates to give the corresponding products in moderate to good yields.
