Anodic oxidation of 15 tert-butylphenols 1a - o in absolute acetonitrile or acetonitrile/perchloric acid leads to the corresponding 7-tert-butyl-2-methylbenzoxazoles 3a - o.The proof of the structure was achieved by independent synthesis of 3k, and by 13C NMR spectroscopy as well as by X-ray analysis of 7-tert-butyl-2-methyl-5-benzoxazolecarbaldehyde (3j).The influence of the supporting electrolyte on the formation of the oxidation products is discussed.
