Procedure
To a solution of methyl 2-(dimethylamino)benzo[d]oxazole-6-carboxylate (2.2 g, ca. 10.0 mmol) in THF (10 mL) and H2O (10 mL) was added LiOH—H2O (1.26 g, 30.0 mmol, 3.0 eq) at room temperature. The mixture was stirred at room temperature overnight. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure then the reaction was quenched with 1N aqueous HCl (20 mL). The resulting mixture was extracted by CH2Cl2 (3×30 mL). The solvent was removed to give 2-(dimethylamino)benzo[d]oxazole-6-carboxylic acid (1.32 g, 6.4 mmol, 65%) over two steps. The crude product was used in the next step without further purification.
