Significance
Reported is the copper-catalyzed synthesis of substituted 2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3-(4H)-ones from 2-halophenols and acetamides. The first step is postulated to be a Cs2CO3-mediated nucleophilic displacement of the aliphatic halide (X²) by the phenol to give intermediate A, examples of which were isolated. This then undergoes an Ullmann-type coupling to give the final products.
