Nucleophilic Addition of 4,5-Dihydrooxazole Derivatives to Base Generated o-Quinone Methides: A Four-Component Reaction.

ABSTRACT: A novel method for joining four components together in a single pot leading to an assortment of N-amino-benzylated phenols is described. The method involves the addition of different Grignard reagents to various o-OBoc salicylaldehydes in the presence of assorted 4,5-dihydrooxazoles, followed by aqueous workup. Seventeen examples are presented with varied (-R, -R' -R″, -R‴, -R⁗, and C_n) substituents.
