Abstract

The first Cu-catalyzed cascade sp3 C–H bond oxidative functionalization of the 2-ethylazaarenes has been developed. The two different sp3 C–H bonds in 2-ethylazaarenes are selectively oxidized and four new types of bonds (C[double bond, length as m-dash]O, C[double bond, length as m-dash]N, C–C, C–O) are constructed in one operation. Starting from the simple substrates and cheap nitro source, this reaction provides an efficient approach to produce new kinds of isoxazolines.
