Abstract :
Benzoxazoles1 are usually prepared by heating 2-Aminophenol with formic acids in the presence of Boric acid under reflux. Condensation of these two substances under milder conditions. Being a heterocyclic compound, benzoxazole finds use in research as a starting material for the synthesis of larger, usually bioactive structures. It is found within the chemical structures of pharmaceutical drugs such as flunoxaprofen. Benzoxazole derivatives are provided a protection against noxious UV radiation.Benzoxazole derivatives are also used in cosmotic compositions, such as for examples mainly cinnamic acid, 4-aminobenzoic acid.Benzoxazole derivatives are also used in the optical brighteners.These derivatives are used as Anticonvulsant and Neurotoxicity2 , Anti-inflammatory agents3, “Antibacterial activityâ€4, Cholesteryl ester transfer Protein inhibitors5, Antimicrobial activity6,7, Antifungal activity’8, Cyclooxygenase inhibitors9, hair treatment products and also used as a skin protectants.
