Acid‐Catalyzed Rearrangements of 3‐Aryloxirane‐2‐Carboxamides: Novel DFT Mechanistic Insights

Abstract Efficient synthesis of 3‐arylquinolin‐2(1H)‐ones and N‐(2‐carboxyaryl)‐oxalamides from protic acid‐catalyzed rearrangements of 3‐aryloxirane‐2‐carboxamides was achieved recently but not well understood. In contrast to the classical Meinwald rearrangement, extensive DFT calculations reveal t...
