Nucleophilic Ring Opening of 2-Oxazolines with Amines: A Convenient Synthesis for Unsymmetrically Substituted Ethylenediamines
Fazio, Michael J.

The reaction of 2-alkyl-2-oxazolines with alkyl- and arylamines was investigated.The acid-catalyzed nucleophilic ring opening of the 2-oxazolines yields N-(2-aminoethyl)carboxamides in good to excellent yields with secondary amines and hindered primary amines.The N-(2-aminoethyl)carboxamides were hydrolyzed under acidic or basic conditions to selectively yield unsymmetrically substituted ethylenediamines.
