RESUMO
An efficient catalytic protocol based on reusable MgAl-layered double hydroxides has been developed for the synthesis of multi-functionalized oxazolines via the cyclocondensation of amidines and aminoalcohols. The developed method has a broad substrate scope and excellent functional group tolerance and uses a reusable catalyst. The catalyst can be conveniently recycled by filtration and reused for at least five times without obvious deactivation. Additionally, the selective ortho C-H silylation of oxazolines was performed using Ru(II) as the catalyst and triethyl silane as the silylating reagent, which proved to be a convenient and practical method for the synthesis of versatile organosilyl-functionalized oxazolines with advantageous biological and physical properties.
