| Use | Application 1, 2-benzoxazole can be widely used in organic synthesis. It can be prepared by 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde as the reaction raw material and the intermediate (E)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde oxime under the action of hydroxylamine hydrochloride, which is further prepared by reacting with triphenylphosphine/DEAD. |

1)(E)-Synthesis of 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde oxime Triethylamine (190mmol)
Slowly add to a solution of 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde (164mmol) and hydroxylamine hydrochloride (197mmol) in ethanol (200mL), and heat the reaction mixture at 95°C for 5h. The reaction mixture was concentrated and the residue was extracted with ethyl acetate (2 × 150mL) and water (100mL). Wash the combined organic layer with water (3 × 150mL), dry (magnesium sulfate) and concentrate. The residue was purified by rapid chromatography (1/100 ethyl acetate/petroleum ether) to provide (E)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde oxime in the form of a white solid with a yield of 43%.
2) Synthesis of 1,2-benzoisazole At 0 ℃, within 4 hours, add DEAD(23.0mmol) tetrahydrofuran (150mL) solution to (E)-2-hydroxybenzaldehyde oxime (21.9mmol) and triphenylphosphine (23.0mmol) tetrahydrofuran (300mL) solution, stir the reaction mixture at 0 ℃ for another 60 minutes and concentrate. The residue was purified by rapid chromatography (1/100 ethyl acetate/petroleum ether) to obtain yellow oily 1,2-benzoisazole in 66% yield.
