Abstract

Propargyl ureas can lead to a range of possible heterocyclic compounds, mainly depending on the employed catalyst. Silver salts are known to promote the N-5-exo-dig cyclization mode to imidazolidinone derivatives. Conversely, a versatile and stereoselective O-5-exo-dig cyclization of propargyl ureas to 2-aminooxazolines by Ag(I) catalysis is here disclosed. Good to excellent yields and complete stereoselectivity of the external double bond have been achieved under milder reaction conditions(50–60°C). A one-po protocol starting from the corresponding propargylic amines and isocyanates has been developed as well. N,N’-Dipropargyl ureas underwent a uncommon O-5-exo-dig/N-5-endo-dig double cyclization sequence. Finally, insights into the tautomeric equilibrium of 2-aminooxazoles and on their relative reactivity are provided.
