Procedure

Combine and stir under nitrogen at 140° C. a mixture of 3-(3-methoxyphenyl)thieno[2,3-d]isoxazole (8 g, 0.035 mol) and pyridine hydrochloride (80 g, 0.69 mol) for nine hours. TLC (ethyl acetate: dichloromethane) shows the reaction is complete. Cool the reaction mixture to room temperature, and pour into water. Extract the organics into ethyl acetate:ether (50:50), and wash once with HCl (3N), three times with water, dry (MgSO4) and evaporate to yield an oil. Purify the oil by column (silica) chromatography, eluting with 5% ethyl acetate in dichloromethane, to yield a solid. Recrystallize this solid (ether:hexane) to obtain the title compound as an orange/tan solid (3 g, 40% yield), m.p. 114–116° C.
