Dichloromethane → 4-Chloro-5-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)isoxazole-3-carbonyl chloride

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a mixture of 4-chloro-5-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)isoxazole-3-carboxylic acid (0.33 g, 1.13 mmol), oxalyl chloride (0.45 mL, 5.16 mmol) and dichloromethane (10 mL) was added a drop of N,N-dimethylformamide. The reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 6 hours. The volatiles were removed in vacuo to obtain 4-chloro-5-(4-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)isoxazole-3-carbonyl chloride (0.34 g, 1.1 mmol)
