Abstract

We achieved efficient preparation of medium ring oxygen heterocycles (1), 1-benzoxepines and 1-benzoxocines, by applying intramolecular Claisen-type condensation in dialkyl carbonate with metal alcoholate. Furthermore, we accomplished the preparation of 2,3-dihydro-1-benzoxepin-4-carboxylate intermediate (1e) for orally active CCR5 antagonists by this method.
