Abstract
A method for the oxygenation of tertiary C-H bonds of N-alkylamidines and N-(2-alkylaryl)amidines is described that utilizes the CuBr•SMe 2/2,2′-bipyridine catalytic system under an O 2 atmosphere and provides dihydrooxazoles and 4H-1,3-benzoxazines. The oxygen atom is incorporated from atmospheric molecular oxygen during the present process.
