Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(2-(N-t-butoxycarbonylamino)ethoxy)-5-hydroxy-1,2-benzisoxazole (100 mg) in tetrahydrofuran (5 ml) was added triethylamine (44 mg) and acetyl chloride (34 mg) with stirring at 5° C., and the mixture was then stirred at the same temperature for 15 minutes. The reaction mixture was poured into ice water (40 ml), extracted with ethyl acetate (twice each with 40 ml) and the combined extracts were dried over anhydrous magnesium sulphate and filtered. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography with cyclohexane/ethyl acetate (9/1) as an eluent, to give the title compound (101 mg, 88%) as a colorless powder.
