Abstract
A one-pot, tandem anionic cyclization/alkylation reaction of <i>N</i>-Boc-<i>O</i>-benzylated-2-aminophenols to give 2-aryl-1,4-benzoxazin-3-ones is described. The Boc protecting group plays a crucial role in the process, as the <i>tert</i>-butoxide liberated in the cyclisation step facilitates the benzylic deprotonation necessary for the subsequent alkylation. The reaction gives expedient access to a range of substitution patterns in 1,4-benzoxazin-3-ones of potential biological relevance.
