Abstract

1,4-Benzoxazines are important motifs in many pharmaceuticals and can be formed by a reaction sequence involving the oxidation of o-aminophenols to their corresponding quinone imine followed by an in situ inverse electron demand Diels-Alder (IEDDA) cycloaddition with a suitable dienophile. Reported herein is the development of a reaction sequence that employs horseradish peroxidase to catalyze the oxidation of the aminophenols prior to the IEDDA as a more sustainable alternative to the use of conventional stoichiometric oxidants. The synthesis of 10 example benzoxazines is demonstrated in this ``one-pot, two-step'' procedure with yields between 42% and 92%. The green chemistry metrics, including the E-factor and generalized reaction mass efficiency, for this biocatalytic reaction were compared against the conventional chemical approach. It was found that the reported biocatalytic route was approximately twice as green by these measures.
