Oxazolinium salts intramolecular

Oxazoles have also been used to generate azomethine ylides in intramolecular [3+2] cycloadditions with alkynes <2000JA5401 1 he nucleophilic attack of cyanide ion on the oxazolinium salt 75 led to the formation of azomethine... 

In contrast to the above additions A-allyl- and substituted A-allyl-amides, -urethanes, -ureas and -thioureas undergo intramolecular cyclization only in 6(3-96% sulfuric acid to give the corresponding oxazolinium and thiazolinium salts. Treatment of these cations with base yields 2-oxazolines and 2-thiazolines in moderate to good yields. The reaction is illustrated by the conversion of A-2-phenylallylacetamide (342) into 2,5-dimethyl-5-phenyl-2-oxazoline (343) in 70% yield 70JOC3768) (see also Chapter 4.19).
