Synthesis,structure, and spectral properties of some bioxazoles

Syntheses of systems containing two oxazole rings [2-phenyl-, 2-(2-furyl)-, and 2-(2-thienyl)-2,5-bioxazoles, and 2,2-(2,5-furylene)bisoxazole] from aldehydes obtained by formylating 2-phenyl-, 2-(2-furyl)-, and 2-(2-thienyl)oxazole have been developed. Terephthalate and thiophen-2,5-dicarboxylate esters have been used to obtain 2,2-(1,4-phenylene)- and 2,2-(2,5-thienylene)bisoxazoles. The PMR, UV, and luminescence spectra of these systems have been examined, and quantum chemical calculations carried out in the PPP approximation.Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 6, pp. 826–836, June, 1986.
