Under the catalysis of Pd2(dba)3 (2.5 mol%), PPh3 (10.0 mol%) and TMSCl (1.0 eq.), the formal [5+2] cycloaddition of vinylethylene carbonates to oxazol-5-(4H)-ones proceeded readily in THF at 60 °C to r.t., thus furnishing 3,4-dihydrooxepin-2(7H)-ones in 67-99% chemical yields. The chemical structure of one compound was confirmed by X-ray diffraction analysis, and the others were suggested by inference.
