참여 물질

반응 단계

To a solution of 4-[2-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)ethoxy]benzaldehyde (7.0 g) in ethanol (100 ml) was added, under ice-cooling, sodium borohydride (0.473 g), and the mixture was stirred for 2 hours at room temperature. To the reaction mixture was added acetic acid (2 ml), which was poured into ice-water, then resulting crystalline precipitate was collected by filtration, followed by recrystallization from ethyl acetate--hexane to yield 4-[2-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolyl)ethoxy]benzyl alcohol (6.9 g, 88%) as colorless plates, m.p.112°-113° C.
