ZUSAMMENFASSUNG
We report here the Sn-catalyzed mild protocol for ring expansion of peroxyoxindoles to afford the series of substituted-2H-benzo[b][1,4]oxazin-3(4H)-one derivatives. In this protocol, we showed the in situ conversion of tert-butyl peroxy compounds into peresters with the aid of external esters, which then underwent the ring-expansion process, and the incipient carbocation was trapped with the alcohol residue generated from the esters. The reaction is also demonstrated in a continuous flow process to afford the rearranged product in 22 min of residence time.
