Abstract

The preparation of a novel phenyl 4,4-bis(oxazoline) [AraBOX] is described. The novel ligand is prepared in two efficient steps from a bis-[(O-silyl)beta-amino alcohol], via conversion into an intermediate bis(benzamide) followed by a one-pot deprotection-activation-ring closure (DARC) oxazoline formation. To our knowledge, this is the first reported synthesis of an oxazoline ring via this DARC method. The synthesis of two precursor bis-beta-amino alcohols, (2R,4R)- and meso-2,4-diaminopentane-1,5-diol, derived from D-(+)-arabitol and xylitol, respectively, is also described.
