title: Substituted 1,4-benzoxazepines, 1,5-benzoxazocines, and N- and S-variants.
abstract: Nucleophilic cleavage of enantiomerically pure 1,2-cyclic sulfamidates with phenol, aniline, and thiophenol nucleophiles, followed by a Mitsunobu reaction, including use of a o-quinomethide variant of this process, provides an entry to substituted 1,4-tetrahydrobenzoxazepines, benzothiazepines, and benzodiazepines. Application of this methodology to 1,3-cyclic sulfamidates affords a parallel entry to the analogous substituted 1,5-benzoxazocines and 1,5-benzodiazocines.
