Reaction Steps

A mixture of 4,5-diphenyl-2-oxo-4-oxazolin-3-ylacetic acid (2.1 g, 7.1 mmol) [J. Org. Chem., 38, 3034 (1973)], thionyl chloride (5 ml) and methylene chloride (20 ml) is refluxed for 2.5 hours. After cooling to room temperature the solvent is removed in vacuo and resulting oil crystallizes on standing. The product is triturated with etherhexane to give 4,5-diphenyl-2-oxo-4-oxazolin-3-ylacetic acid chloride; 2.0 g mp 104°-12°.
