Micelle-mediated synthesis of quinoxaline, 1,4-benzoxazine and 1,4-benzothiazine scaffolds from styrenes.

A range of heterocycles based on quinoxalines, 1,4-benzoxazines and 1,4-benzothiazines have been accessed from styrenes by reacting them with benzene-1,2-diamine, 2-aminophenol and 2-aminothiophenol respectively in micellar medium. This reaction occurring in a less explored cetylpyridinium bromide (CPB) micellar medium operates in the presence of NBS through a tandem hydrobromination-oxidation cascade, converting styrenes to phenacyl bromides. Its subsequent nucleophilic addition with aromatic 1,2-dinucleophiles and further transformations led to the formation of heterocyclic constructs.
