Abstract

This review covers advances in the synthesis of morpholin-3-ones and morpholin-2-ones. Besides the classical approaches for the preparation of both heterocycles that utilize intermolecular cyclizations of reactants or oxidation of morpholine and its derivatives, strategies employing various ring-expansion reactions using smaller heterocyclic substrates or multicomponent reactions are described.

1 Introduction

2 Synthesis of Morpholin-3-ones

2.1 By Formation of Two Bonds

2.2 By Formation of One Bond

2.3 By Introduction of Substituents

3 Synthesis of Morpholin-2-ones

3.1 By Formation of Two Bonds

3.2 By Formation of One Bond

3.3 By Introduction of Substituents

4 Conclusion
