Procedure
To a solution of 3-[5-(4,5-dichloro-2-thienyl)-4-isoxazolyl]propionic acid (1.60 g) in methanol (30 ml) was added conc. sulfuric acid (1 ml) and the mixture was heated under reflux for 1 hr. The reaction mixture was concentrated, iced water was poured on the residue and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and crystals (1.34 g, yield 80%) of methyl 3-[5-(4,5-dichloro-2-thienyl)-4-isoxazolyl]propionate was obtained from a fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (1:7, volume ratio). The crystals were recrystallized from diethyl ether-hexane to give a colorless needle. melting point: 49–50° C.
