Reaktionsschritte

To a stirred suspension of tosylmethylisocyanate (TosMIC, 3.90 g, 20 mmol) and propionaldehyde (1.5 mL 20.4 mmol) in 60 mL dry ethanol, finely powdered sodium cyamide (0.098 g, 2 mmol) was added. The reaction mixture became clear and white crystals of oxazoline began to precipitate in 15 min. The reaction was continuously stirred for an additional 30 min. The mixture was filtered and the crystals were washed with ether-hexane (1:1) before drying. Compound 15 was attained in 81% yield (4.1 g). The structure was confirmed by 1H NMR in CDCl3, LC-MS: [M+1]=254. Purity was >98%.
