Abstract
AbstractA new ruthenium‐catalyzed cyclization of ortho‐(alkynyloxy)benzylamines to dihydro‐1,3‐benzoxazines is reported. The cyclization is thought to take place via the vinyl ruthenium carbene intermediates which are easily formed from [Cp*RuCl(cod)] and N2CHSiMe3. The mild reaction conditions and the efficiency of the procedure allow the easy preparation of a broad range of new 2‐vinyl‐2‐substituted 1,3‐benzoxazine derivatives. Rearrangement of an internal C(sp) in the starting material into a tetrasubstituted C(sp3) atom in the final 1,3‐benzoxazine is highly remarkable.
