An efficient and straightforward synthesis of polysubstituted oxazol-2(3)-ones has been developed via a tandem Hofmann-type rearrangement and cyclization reaction of various α-acyl-β-aminoacrylamides mediated by phenyl iodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) (PIFA) in the presence of trifloroacetic acid (TFA). This novel protocol features readily available starting materials, mild reaction conditions, simple execution, high chemoselectivity, good functional group tolerance, and a metal-free oxidation process.
