The technique allows the facile assembly of 2,5-disubstituted-4-carbalkoxy oxazoles, including 5-amino and 5-alkenyl oxazoles. Applications of this chemistry in the total synthesis of muscoride A, siphonazoles, and other oxazole alkaloids are described.}, issn = {0385-5414}, doi = {10.3987/REV-10-SR(E)3}, author = {Zhang, Jianmin and Coqueron, Pierre-Yves and Ciufolini, Marco A.} }
