An efficient method for intermolecular N-arylation of oxazolidinones using catalytic copper in the presence of a bidentate ligand is reported. The conditions allow the use of copper and can be used to prepare enantiopure N-aryl beta-amino alcohols. A short, scalable synthesis of CJ-15,161 is also reported. The required amines were obtained from the precursor alpha-amino acids or, more conveniently, from the corresponding 1,2-amino alcohols.

The arylation of azaheterocycles can be considered as one of the most important processes for the preparation of various biologically active compounds. In the present work, we describe a method for the copper-catalyzed -arylation of hindered oxazolidinones using diaryliodonium salts. The method succeeds in good to excellent yields for the arylation of 4-alkyloxazolidinones, including sterically hindered isopropyl- and -butyl-substituted.

,'-Bis(pyridin-2-ylmethyl)oxalamide (BPMO) was found to be an apposite promoter for the Cu-catalyzed -arylation of oxazolidinones and primary and secondary amides with (hetero)aryl iodides at room temperature. Excellent chemoselectivity reached between aryl iodides and aryl bromides, and a wide range of functional groups tolerated the reaction conditions, which led to the formation of greatly diverse -arylation products.

The sequential use of a single Cu(I) catalyst enables the one-pot synthesis of N'-arylaminooxazolidinones through a Lewis acid catalyzed rearrangement followed by an N-arylation reaction. Contrary to previous reports, the formation of a cis-fused 5,5-membered ring system occurs during the rearrangement, as proven by X-ray crystallography.

The amide moiety of several enantiopure unactivated 1-aryl- or 1-alkylaziridine-2-carboxamides were reduced and then N-Boc-protected to afford enantiopure 2-(Boc-aminomethyl)aziridines, which were further converted into enantiopure 5-(aminomethyl)-1,3-oxazolidin-2-ones by means of a stereospecific and fully regioselective BF3.Et2O-promoted intramolecular nucleophilic ring opening. One of these oxazolidinones was transformed into the antibiotic linezolid through a CuI-catalyzed N-arylation reaction at its carbamate moiety.
