135. +at C2 the ring-closed isomer 7 is favoured.
136. Our NMR investigations reveal that lithiated oxazoles lead to fast and complete (within the limits of the measurement: 95±5%) ring opened products 7′, even at -78 °C. The structure of [7'-diglyme]2 could be determined by an X-ray structure analysis, as pointed out earlier'91.
