Procedure

Palladium on charcoal catalyst (10%; 50 mg) was added to a degassed solution of 5-(2,4-Bis-benzyloxy-5-styrylphenyl)-isoxazole-3-carboxylic acid ethylamide (690 mg, 1.30 mmol) in 1,4-dioxane (50 mL) under a nitrogen atmosphere. The reaction mixture was hydrogenated for a total of 4.75 hrs with further Pd on charcoal catalyst (50 mg) added at 0.75 and 2.5 hrs. The reaction mixture was filtered through a pad of celite, which was washed with 1,4-dioxane (20 mL) and dichloromethane (20 mL). The combined filtrate solvents were removed in vacuo to afford a cream-coloured solid, which was purified by flash chromatography on silica gel (20 g, IST) eluting with 10 to 50% ethyl acetate in hexane. This affords 5-(2,4-Bis-benzyloxy-5-phenethylphenyl)-isoxazole-3-carboxylic acid ethylamide as a pale yellow solid (609 mg, 88%).
