Oxazole
Oxazole is the parent compound for vast class of heterocyclic aromatic organic compounds. These are azoles with an oxygen and a nitrogen separated by one carbon [1]. Additional recommended knowledge
BiochemistryIn biomolecules, oxazoles result from the cyclization and oxidation of serine or threonine nonribosomal peptides: Oxazoles are not as abundant in biomolecules as the related thiazoles with oxygen replaced by a sulfur atom. PropertiesOxazoles are aromatic compounds but less so than the thiazoles. Oxazole is a weak base with pKa of conjugate acid of 0.8 compared to 7 for imidazole. Organic synthesisClassical oxazole synthetic methods in organic chemistry are
Other methods are reported in the literature.
