Abstract
An iodine and base-promoted domino cyclization has been disclosed for one-pot synthesis of 1,3,4-oxadiazoles via oxidative cleavage of C(sp2)-N and C(sp2)-C bonds. Herein, the use of potassium carbonate base was found to be crucial reagents in this oxidative cyclization and deacylation through selective bonds cleavage, affording mono and disubstituted 1,3,4-oxadiazoles respectively. The domino process provides a variety of substrate scope with moderate to good yields and is highly functional group compatible. Moreover, an important drug molecule fenadiazole was derived following the present procedure.
