Abstract:1,4-Benzoxazines are important motifs in many pharmaceuticals and can be formed by a reaction sequence involving the oxidation of o-aminophenols to their corresponding quinone imine followed by an in situ inverse electron demand Diels−Alder (IEDDA) cycloaddition with a suitable dienophile. Reported herein is the development of a reaction sequence that employs horseradish peroxidase to catalyze the oxidation of the aminophenols prior to the IEDDA as a more sustainable alternative to the use of conventional stoi… Show more
