Abstract: Abstract We have developed a transition-metal-free, practical route to benzimidazole-fused 1,4-benzoxazepines. Operationally, the protocol involves a K2CO3-mediated intermolecular ring opening of terminal epoxides by 2-(2-fluorophenyl)benzimidazole, followed by an intramolecular nucleophilic aromatic substitution (SNAr) reaction of… read more here.
