Abstract
1,2,4-Oxadiazole is one of the most promising heterocyclic ring systems in medicinal chemistry. In the present paper, we report the method for an efficient one-pot synthesis of 3,5-diaryl substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles using a two-component reaction of gem-dibromomethylarenes with amidoximes in good yields. In this method, gem-dibromomethylarenes are used as benzoic acid equivalents for the efficient synthesis of aryl-substituted 1,2,4-oxadiazoles. It is anticipated that this methodology will have versatile applications in the practical syntheses of various molecules of both medicinal and material chemistry importance.
