A decarboxylation‐triggered and o‐hydroxyl‐controlled hydrogen‐transfer strategy for the one‐pot synthesis of benzoxazoles from readily available amino acids and 2‐nitrophenols is reported. On the basis of this autoredox reaction, the C−N bond can be efficiently constructed to afford the desired products in moderate to good yields under transition‐metal‐free conditions in aqueous media.

水性介质中苯甘氨酸与2-硝基苯酚的意外脱羧引发的邻羟基控制的氧化还原缩合

据报道，采用脱羧触发和邻羟基控制的氢转移策略，可以从容易获得的氨基酸和2-硝基酚一锅法合成苯并恶唑。在这种自动氧化还原反应的基础上，可以在水性介质中在无过渡金属的条件下有效构建CN键，以中等至良好的产率获得所需的产物。
