Procedure

A solution of salicylamide (4.14 g, 30.2 mmol) and conc. sulfuric a-id (3 drops) in acetone (40 mL) was refluxed for 5 h. The reaction was concentrated and the residue taken up in ethyl acetate. The organic solution was washed with 1 N NaOH (2×), 1 N HCl (2×), H2O, then sat. aq. NaCl, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated to afford 2,2-dimethyl-4-keto-1,3-benzoxazine (2.50 g, 47%) as a white solid: 1H NMR (CDCl3, 300 MHz, ppm) 7.92 (d, 1H), 7.60 (bs, 1H), 7.47 (m, 1H), 7.06 (m, 1H), 6.92 (d, 1H), 1.65 (s, 6H).
