Procedure
To a solution of (4-(5-ethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)phenyl)methanol (1.8 g, 8.8 mmol) in CH2Cl2 (50 mL) was added molecular sieves (1.5 g, 4 Å) and the mixture was cooled to 0° C. Pyridinium chlorochromate (2.27 g, 10.5 mmol) was added in portions to the reaction mixture then it was warmed to room temperature. After stirring for 2 hrs, the mixture was filtered through Celite and rinsed with additional CH2Cl2. The filtrate was concentrated in vacuo. Purification by chromatography (EtOAc-hexanes) provided 4-(5-ethyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)benzaldehyde as an off-white solid (1.3 g, 70%).
