Abstract
A manganese octahedral molecular sieve (OMS-2) was found to be an efficient and recyclable heterogeneous catalyst for the oxidative synthesis of benzoxazoles in the gram-scale from phenolic imines at room temperature. H2O2 and biobased reagent dimethyl carbonate (DMC) were successfully employed as the environmentally friendly oxidant and solvent, respectively, in an OMS-2-catalysted redox reaction for the first time. Benzoxazoles could also be obtained from N-substituted 2-aminophenols via Cu(OH)x/OMS-2-catalyzed sequential oxidative transformation at elevated temperatures.
