Abstract
A study has been made of the catalytic activity of a number of proton acids and Lewis acids, amongst which mercury salts were particularly active, in the cyclization of N-phenylethanolamine vinyl ether to 2-methyl-3-phenyloxazolidine. A method for the preparative synthesis of 2-methyloxazolidines has been developed.
