HCID 1356214594-(Oxazol-2-yl)phenolYield 47.9%

Procedure

2-(4-Aminophenyl)oxazole [m.p. 121°-123° C.; Rosenbaum et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 64, 2444 (1942)] (10.3 g) was diazotized with 4.93 g of sodium nitrite and 215 ml of 2N sulfuric acid. The resulting diazonium salt was heated until no more nitrogen was evolved, and the product was isolated and recrystallized from ethylene dichloride to give 4.96 g of 4-(2-oxazolyl)phenol, yellow crystals, m.p. 167°-168° C.
