An easy and efficient new method for the three-component synthesis of 2-oxazolines from ethyl α-cyanocinnamate derivatives with amide and N-bromosuccinimide has been developed. A series of ethyl α-cyanocinnamate derivatives can be smoothly con-verted into corresponding 2-oxazoline derivatives promoted by Na2CO3 in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) at room temperature in high yield (up to 94%). The reactions of 11 structurally different substrates with propionamide, acrylamide, isobutyamide and pentanamide were investigated, respectively. The results indicated that the protocol has applicability in a large scope of ethyl α-cyanocinnamate derivatives and amides. A possible mechanism was proposed and it can explain well the full regiospecificity of the reaction. 39 new compounds were achieved via the three-component synthesis reaction and all the products structures were confirmed by their 1H NMR, 13C NMR and HRMS analysis.
