“…As mentioned above, the cyclocondensation of O -acylamidoximes is a not so attractive method, and one-pot protocols, which start from amidoximes, are much more desirable, primarily, for drug discovery. The possibility of carrying out the reaction in a “two-step, one-pot” manner is the main advantage of the MOH/DMSO system (M = Li, Na, K) in comparison with TBAF-involved methods, and it was realized in several works [ 95 , 96 , 97 , 98 , 99 , 100 , 101 , 102 , 103 ]. It is most convenient to discuss these methods by dividing them by the type of used carboxyl function sources: esters, acids, acyl chlorides, anhydrides, dicarboxylic acid anhydrides, aldehydes, and even N -acyl benzotriazoles.…”
