Rm. Srivastava et al., 5-butyl-3,5-diaryl-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles, and a one-step synthesisof 4,4-dibutyl-2-phenyl-benzo-1,3-oxazine, HETEROCYCLE, 53(1), 2000, pp. 191-195
The synthesis of 5-butyl-3,5-diaryl-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-oxadiazoles is descri
bed. The present work also describes the discovery of a reaction leading to
the conversion of 5-butyl-5-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-3-phenyl-4,5-dihydro-1,2,4-o
xadiazole (1d) to 4,4-dibutyl-2-phenylbenzo-1,3-oxazine (3).
