Reaction Steps

(6-Chloro-2-oxo-benzooxazol-3-yl)-acetic acid was prepared by heating 6-chloro-3H-benzooxazol-2-one and ethyl chloroacetate in the presence of cesium carbonate in DMF at 60° C. The crude residue was dissolved followed in 1N LiOH in THF and stirred at rt. The resultant mixture was acidified with 1N HCl to pH ˜1. The desired product precipitated out of solution and was isolated by filtration, and used directly in subsequent reactions without further purification.
