反応手順

A mixture of, 2-[4-(bromomethyl)-3-methoxyphenyl]-1,3-benzoxazole (318 mg, 1 mmol), dimethylformamide (7.5 mL) and deionzed water (2.5 mL) was stirred at rt. Sodium cyanide (150 mg, 3.0 mmol) was added to reaction. After 3 h, dimethylformamide (10 mL) was added to help dissolve solids in reaction mixture. Let reaction mixture stir overnight at rt. Workup was done by washing reaction with brine (3×30 mL), extraction with EtOAc, combined organic extracts, dried (Na2SO4), filtered and removed solvent in vacuo. Flash chromatography of resulting orange solid on silica gel using a gradient elution of 1:9 EtOAc:hexanes to 1:3 EtOAc:hexanes afforded the desired intermediate, [4-(1,3-benzoxazol-2-yl)-2-methoxyphenyl]acetonitrile, as a light yellow solid.
