HCID 768872-Oxazolidinone, 3-(2-hydroxyethyl)-

Procedure

A mixture of diethanolamine (12.55 g), diethyl carbonate (16.2 mL), and sodium methoxide (80 mg) was heated to 130–140° C. for 1.5 h and distilled during the reaction using a Dean-Stark trap. The remaining liquid was concentrated in vacuo to give 15.11 g (97%) as a yellow oil.
