反応手順

Thionyl chloride (5.39 g) was added to a mixture of 6-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolylmethoxy)-3-pyridylmethanol (12.2 g) and toluene (200 ml), which was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. Ice water was added to the reaction mixture, which was neutralized with saturated aqueous sodium bicarbonate solution, and was extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, and concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography to obtain 5-chloromethyl-2-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolylmethoxy)pyridine (11.7 g, yield 90%) as colorless crystals from the fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:3, volume ratio). This was recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane to obtain colorless prism crystals. Melting point: 86–87° C.
