title: Lewis Basic Sulfide Catalyzed Electrophilic Bromocyclization of Cyclopropylmethyl Amide.
abstract: A Lewis basic sulfide catalyzed electrophilic bromocyclization of cyclopropylmethyl amide has been developed. The catalytic protocol is applicable to both 1,1- and 1,2-substituted cyclopropylmethyl amides, giving oxazolines and oxazines in good yields and excellent diastereoselectivity.
