2-Oxazolidinones and 1,3-oxazine-2-ones, key moieties of new antiulcer agents, were prepared successfully by treating corresponding hydroxyamide with N-bromosuccinimide (NBS) and silveracetate in acetonitrile. From the fact that the methods for the preparation of hydoxy amides are versatile and such amides could be converted to the corresponding 2-oxazolid-iones and 1,3-oxazine-2-one under our reaction condition, we think that our method is very practical one for the preparation of such compounds. In addition, the above synthetic example affords a good evidence of the synthetic applicability of our improved Hofmann rearrangement.
