Abstract:


N-cinnamoyl anthranilic acids are synthesized in a single, eco-friendly step by condensing

various cinnamic acids with free 2-aminobenzoic acid derivatives using the mixed carbonic

anhydride method. Subsequently, converting the resulting N-cinnamoyl anthranilic acids

into their corresponding mixed carbonic anhydrides rapidly and efficiently affords 2-styryl-

benzo[d][1,3]oxazin-4-ones. The method employs green solvents, such as acetone and

2-methyltetrahydrofuran; does not require metal catalysts or reflux conditions; and yields

the desired final products without chromatographic purification.


Keywords: benzo[d][1,3] oxazin-4-ones; anthranilic acids; hydroxycinnamic acids
