| Abstract: | Compounds with a (2H)-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one skeleton have attracted the attention of phytochemistry researchers since 2,4-dihydroxy-(2H)-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (DIBOA) and 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-(2H)-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (DIMBOA) were isolated from plants belonging to the Poaceae family. These compounds exhibit interesting biological properties, such as phytotoxic, antimicrobial, antifeedant, antifungal, and insecticidal properties. These chemicals, in addition to a wide variety of related compounds involved in their metabolism, detoxification mechanisms, and degradation on crop soils and other systems, have high interest and in some cases potential agronomic utility. This paper presents a complete review of the methods employed for their synthetic obtention in addition to some of the authors' own contributions to their chemistry. The degradation and phytotoxicity experiments carried out in ongoing research into the potential agronomic utility of these compounds required large amounts of them, which were obtained from natural sources. This paper presents a modified methodology to access DIMBOA from Zea mays cv. Apache and to obtain 2-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-2,4-dihydroxy-(2H)-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one (DIBOA-Glc) and DIBOA from Secale cereale L. New synthetic methodologies were employed for the obtention of the lactams 2-hydroxy-(2H)-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one and 2-hydroxy-7-methoxy-(2H)-1,4-benzoxazin-3(4H)-one and the malonamic acids N-(2-hydroxyphenyl)malonamic acid and N-(2-hydroxy-7-methoxyphenyl)malonamic acid. The aminophenoxazines 2-amino-7-methoxyphenoxazin-3-one and 2-acetamido-7-methoxyphenoxazin-3-one have been synthesized in the authors' laboratory by novel procedures. All of the methodologies employed allowed the desired compounds to be obtained in high yield and in an easy-to-scale manner. |
