Mechanochemical Synthesis of Substituted 4H-3,1-Benzoxazin-4-ones, 2-Aminobenzoxazin-4-ones, and 2-Amino-4H-3,1-benzothiazin-4-ones Mediated by 2,4,6-Trichloro-1,3,5-triazine and Triphenylphosphine

Abstract

A mild and convenient approach for the synthesis of 2-substituted 4H-3,1-benzoxazin-4-ones, 2-aminobenzoxazin-4-ones, and 2-amino-4H-3,1-benzothiazin-4-ones under solvent-assisted grinding is reported. In the presence of 2,4,6-trichloro-1,3,5-triazine and catalytic triphenylphosphine, cyclodehydration of N-substituted anthranilic acid derivatives proceeded rapidly within minutes at room temperature. The products were also obtained in good to excellent yields by using minimal amounts of solvent and inexpensive reagents.

Key words

Upon completion of the reaction as indicated by TLC, dichloromethane (2 mL) was added and the resulting mixture was filtered through a short pad of silica, followed by solvent evaporation under reduced pressure. 2-Phenyl-4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-one (2a; Table 2, entry 1): Yield: 0.1103 g (0.494 mmol, 91%); white solid; mp 120–122 °C; R_f 0.38 (EtOAc/hexanes, 10%). ¹H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 8.29 (d, J = 7.2 Hz, 2 H), 8.22 (dd, J = 8.0, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 7.80 (td, J = 8.0, 1.2 Hz, 1 H), 7.67 (d, J = 8.0 Hz, 1 H), 7.57 (t, J = 7.2 Hz, 1 H), 7.49 (t, J = 7.2 Hz, 3 H). ¹³C NMR (100 MHz, CDCl₃): δ = 159.6, 157.2, 147.0, 136.6, 132.7, 130.3, 128.8, 128.7, 128.4, 128.3, 127.3, 117.1. 2-(4-Fluorobenzyl)-4H-benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-one (2k; Table 2, entry 11): Yield: 0.1181 g (0.462 mmol, 85%); white solid; mp 125–127 °C; R_f 0.42 (EtOAc/hexanes, 10%).
