Abstract

This invention provides methods for the solution-phase synthesis of arylbenzoxazoles. The methods involve condensation of aminophenols with benzaldehydes to form a Schiff base. The Schiff base is then induced to undergo oxidative cyclization in the presence of DDQ. The resulting arylbenzoxazoles can be separated from the reduced DDQ byproduct by treatment of reaction mixture with a strongly basic ion exchange resin.
