実験手順

Ethanol (EtOH) (35 ml), 3-bromopropanoic acid (1.53 g, 10 mmols) and 2-mercaptobenzoxazole (1.51 g, 10mmols) were added in that order to an aqueous (15 ml) solution of potassium hydroxide (KOH) (1.0 g, 17.8 mmols), and heated under reflux for 3 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure, water was added to the resulting residue, and this was made acidic (pH=1) with 1N HCl added thereto. The precipitate formed was taken out through filtration, and crystallized in acetone-ether-hexane to obtain 1.3 g (58%) of 3-(benzoxazol-2-ylthio)propanoic acid as colorless crystals.
