A straightforward approach to new polycyclic heterocycles, 1<i>H</i>-benzo[4,5]imidazo[1,2-<i>c</i>][1,3]oxazin-1-ones, is presented. It is based on the ZnCl<sub>2</sub>-promoted deprotective 6-<i>endo</i>-<i>dig</i> heterocyclization of <i>N</i>-Boc-2-alkynylbenzimidazoles under mild conditions (CH<sub>2</sub>Cl<sub>2</sub>, 40 °C for 3 h). The zinc center plays a dual role, as it promotes Boc deprotection (with formation of the <i>tert</i>-butyl carbocation, which can be trapped by substrates ...[more]
