Procedure

A mixture of 5-[2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)ethyl]-4-methoxymethoxymethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazole (3.12 g), 4-chloromethyl-5-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazole (2.28 g), potassium carbonate (1.27 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide (50 mL) was stirred at 90° C. for 15 hrs. The reaction mixture was poured into water and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed successively with dilute hydrochloric acid and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to give 5-{2-[4-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazol-4-yl)methoxyphenyl]ethyl}-4-methoxymethoxymethyl-2-phenyl-1,3-oxazole as colorless crystals (4.70 g, yield 85%) from a fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:3, v/v). The crystals were recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane. melting point: 124-125° C.
