The cyclization of δ‐acetoxy‐ O ‐allyl‐ and ϵ‐acetoxy‐ O ‐homoallyl‐trichloroacetimidates to 4‐vinyloxazolines and a 4‐vinyldihydrooxazine has been efficiently achieved by olefin aminopalladation–β‐heteroatom elimination. ( Z )‐Allylic imidates bearing a secondary δ‐acetoxy group underwent Pd II ‐catalysed cyclization to give the E isomers of 4‐vinyloxazolines selectively and gave no Overman rearrangement products. Using a chiral substrate, it has been demonstrated that cyclization to 4‐vinyloxazolines occurs with high chirality transfer. Stereoselective E isomer formation and chirality transfer provided a basis from which to discuss the possible reaction mechanism. (© Wiley‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, 69451 Weinheim, Germany, 2009)
