{4-[5-(2-Chlorobiphenyl-4-yl)-[1,2,4]-oxadiazol-3-yl]-phenyl}-methanol → 4-[5-(2-Chlorobiphenyl-4-yl)-[1,2,4]-oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

Pyridiniumchlorochromate (3.6 g, 0.017 mol) is added to a solution of {4-[5-(2-chlorobiphenyl-4-yl)-[1,2,4]-oxadiazol-3-yl]-phenyl}-methanol (4.0 g, 0.011 mol) in dichloromethane (40 mL). The reaction mixture is stirred at room temperature for 30 minutes, filtered and washed with dichloromethane (40 mL). Filtrate is concentrated under reduced pressure to give crude which is purified by column chromatography (230; 400 mesh: 9.5:0.5 toluene:ethyl acetate) to yield 4-[5-(2-chlorobiphenyl-4-yl)-[1,2,4]-oxadiazol-3-yl]-benzaldehyde.
