Reaction Steps

5-(2',4'-Dichlorophenyl)-4-isoxazolecarbonyl chloride (2.0 g.; 0.007 mol.) was covered with 2-(2'-methoxyethoxy) ethanol and the solution was heated on a steam cone for 2 hours. After esterification, the excess 2-(2'-methoxyethoxy) ethanol was extracted into water. The insoluble oil was dissolved in ether, dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated to yield 2-(2'-methoxyethoxy)ethyl-5-(2',4'-dichlorophenyl)-4-isoxazolecarboxylate (2.4 g.; 96% yield) as an oil having the following analysis:
