oxazoline
Definition
- Oxazoline is a five-membered heterocyclic chemical compound containing one atom each of oxygen and nitrogen. It was likely first synthesized in 1884 but it was not until 5 years later that Siegmund Gabriel correctly assigned the structure. It was named in-line with the Hantzsch-Widman nomenclature and is part of a family of heterocyclic compounds, where it exists between oxazole and oxazolidine in terms of saturation. Oxazoline itself has no current applications however compounds containing the ring, which are referred to as oxazolines or oxazolyls, have a wide variety of uses; particularly as ligands in asymmetric catalysis, as protecting groups for carboxylic acids and increasingly as monomers for the production of polymers.
