HCID 619436Methyl 3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylateYield 87%

Procedure

To a solution of 0.1 g (0.4455 mmol) alpha-Chloro-2,6-dichlorobenzaldoxime in 5 mL methyl 3-oxobutanoate, 0.11 mL (1.5 eq) diisopropylethlamine were added. The mixture was stirred for 24 h then ethylacetate was removed in the vacuo. The residue was dried under high vacuo and the crude product was triturated in water until it became solid. The solid was filtered off and further purified by recrystallization from a water-methanol mixture. The crystals were filtered off, washed with water and dried under reduced pressure to afford 248 mg (87%) of methyl 3-(2,6-dichlorophenyl)-5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylate. Result of LC/MS [M+H]+: 286.12; 1H NMR (DMSO-d6; CCl4): 2.77 (3H, s, CH3-isooxazole), 3.28 (3H, s, CH3-methoxy), 7.54-7.65 (3H, m, aromatic)
