Abstract
Abstract Benzoxazoles or benzimidazoles can be rapidly and efficiently synthesized from a variety of carboxylic acids with 2-aminophenols or 1,2-phenylenediamines in one simple step, respectively. The use of commercially available PS-PPh3 resin combined with microwave heating delivered a variety of benzoxazoles and benzimidazoles in high yields and purities.
