Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of 4-(chlorocarbonyl)phenyl acetate (45.6 g, 0.23 mol) in sulfolane (200 mL) was added 2-TMS-1,2,3-triazole (1.1 eq., 34 mL) over one minute. After stirring for 5 minutes under nitrogen, the reaction was exothermic and the temperature was increased to between 35° C. and 40° C. The reaction mixture was placed under vacuum for 10 minutes to remove the chlorotrimethylsilane (b.p.=57° C.). The reaction mixture was heated at 150° C. for 2.5 hours. After 10 minutes, gas evolution was observed. After cooling, the reaction mixture was poured into water (1.2 L) and extracted with ether (3×). The combined organic layers were washed with water (3×) and brine, dried and concentrated to give 4-(2-oxazolyl)phenyl acetate (44.8 g, 96% th.; 98% pract) as a solid; 1H NMR (CDCl3) δ 8.05 (d, 2H), 7.70 (s, 1H), 7.20 (m, 3H), 2.35 (s, 3H) ppm.
