General description

2H-1,4-Benzoxazin-3(4H)-one, a benzoxazine derivative, is a heterocyclic building block for various natural and synthetic organic compounds. It has been reported as an intermediate during the biogenesis of cyclic hydoxamic acids in maize. Its standard molar enthalpy of formation and tautomerization energy of its tautomers has been evaluated by calorimetric and computational methods. It has been synthesized by reacting o-aminophenol with chloroacetyl chloride in the presence of butanone and aqueous NaHCO3.

A new inhibitor of in vitro tumor cell replication, cappamensin A (1) (2H-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one, 6-methoxy-2-methyl-4-carbaldehyde), was isolated from the roots of Capparis sikkimensis subsp. formosana using bioactivity-guided fractionation. The structure of 1 was established by spectroscopic methods, including 2D NMR analyses.

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
