Reaction Steps

5-(3-Iodophenyl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2(3H)-one (778 mg, 2.70 mmol) obtained in Step 1 was dissolved in DMF (14 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour after adding potassium carbonate (840 mg, 4.05 mmol) and methyl iodide (0.20 mL, 3.24 mmol). The mixture was stirred after adding water, and the precipitated solid was filtered off and dried to give 5-(3-iodophenyl)-3-methyl-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2 (3H)-one (736 mg, 90%).
