[reaction: see text] Condensation of 2-fluorobenzonitriles with phenoxides affords 2-aryloxybenzonitriles that cyclize cleanly in trifluoromethanesulfonic acid at room temperature to give xanthone-iminium triflates. The C=N bond in these compounds is remarkably resistant to hydrolysis, but prolonged reaction with strong aqueous

A novel tandem amination-reduction reaction has been developed in which 2-(N,N-dialkylamino)benzylamines are generated from 2-halobenzonitriles and lithium N,N-dialkylaminoborohydride (LAB) reagents. These reactions are believed to occur through a tandem S(N)Ar amination-reduction mechanism wherein the LAB reagent promotes halide displacement by

Further exploration of the scope of our solid-phase method for the synthesis of 3-aminobenzisoxazoles (using the Kaiser oxime resin 1) is described. The effects of base, leaving group, and solvent on the nucleophilic aromatic substitution based resin-loading reaction are discussed.
