Abstract
A short and efficient method for synthesizing epi-cytoxazone via the corresponding oxazoline intermediate was developed. The formation of the oxazoline ring, which proceeds through an SN1 mechanism to ensure that the trans-oxazoline stereochemistry is retained, was induced by intramolecular benzylic substitution of a 1,2-bis-trichloroacetimidate, starting from the known enantiomerically pure diol.
