Abstract New, diversely substituted phenolic oxazolines 14a− d and 15a− d were prepared by two complementary routes A and B, starting from salicylic derivatives 4− 7 and various enantiomerically pure 1, 2-amino alcohols 13a− d. In route A, the 1, 2-amino alcohols 13a− d were directly condensed with the salicylic acids 5 and 7, using the Appel reaction, whereas in route B the amino alcohols 13b− d were treated with the 2- ...
