Modification at the C5 position of an oxazole ring contained in a 2,4-concatenated tris-oxazole by Pd-catalyzed coupling reactions was performed. Novel Pd-catalyzed amination and alkoxylation of a 5-bromooxazole derivative as well as Suzuki–Miyaura coupling and Migita–Stille coupling have been demonstrated. A wide variety of functional groups, including aryl, heteroaryl, primary and secondary amines, and phenol, were introduced in the 5-bromooxazole moiety in moderate to excellent yields using Pd(OAc) 2 /S-PHOS or Pd(OAc) 2 /X-PHOS as a catalyst.
