In the present study, we use a Ag@TiO2 nanocomposite for the efficient synthesis of benzoxazole derivatives via the one-pot condensation of 2-aminophenol and several aromatic aldehydes or orthoesters or carboxylic acids or amides or acyl chlorides in water at room temperature. In all situations the preferred products were synthesized with excellent yields. The short reaction times, high yields, safety and mild conditions, simplicity, non-toxicity and easy workup are the main merits of this protocol.
