Abstract
The isomeric 2‐substituted‐7(5)‐methyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐5(7)H‐oxazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidin‐5‐ones 3a‐b and 7‐ones 2a‐b,7a were synthesized by cyclocondensation from the 5‐substituted‐2‐amino‐2‐oxazolines 1a‐b with biselectrophiles. In boiling ethanol, the reaction of 1a‐b with acetylenic esters led to a mixture of 2a‐b,7a with a small amount of (E)‐2‐N‐(2‐ethoxycarbonylethylene)‐5‐substituted‐2‐iminooxazolines 5a‐b. The ring annulation between 1a‐b and diketene gave the 2‐substituted‐7‐hydroxy‐7‐methyl‐2,3,6,7‐tetrahydro‐5__H__‐oxazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidin‐5‐ones 4a‐b which can be easily dehydrated to provide the 2‐substituted‐7‐methyl‐2,3‐dihydro‐5__H__‐oxazolo[3,2‐a]pyrimidin‐5‐ones 3a‐b.

## Abstract The reaction of 2‐amino‐2‐oxazolines with ethoxycarbonyl isocyanate was investigated in order to access to fused 1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4‐diones with a potential 5‐HT~2~ antagonist activity. The reaction leads to 2,3,6,7‐tetrahydro‐4__H__‐oxazolo[3,2‐__a__]‐1,3,5‐triazine‐2,4‐diones and to 1‐
