To a solution of 3-ethyl-4-hydroxy-5-methyl-benzonitrile (480 mg, 2.98 mmol) in THF (10 mL), triphenylphosphine (1.17 g, 4.47 mmol) and (2,2-dimethyl-[1,3]dioxan-5-yl)-methanol (478 mg, 3.28 mmol) is added. The mixture is cooled to 4° C. before DEAD (1.94 g, 4.47 mmol, 2.05 mL of a 40% solution in toluene) is added. Stirring is continued at 4° C. for 15 min, then at rt for 1 h. The solvent is removed in vacuo and the crude product is purified by CC on silica gel eluting with heptane:EA 9:1 to give 4-(2,2-dimethyl-[1,3]dioxan-5-ylmethoxy)-3-ethyl-5-methyl-benzonitrile (240 mg) as a yellow oil; LC-MS: tR=1.04 min; [M+1+CH3CN]+=330.97. To a solution of this material (240 mg, 829 μmol) in methanol (5 mL), hydroxylamine hydrochloride (86 mg, 1.24 mmol) and NaHCO3 (104 mg, 1.24 mmol) is added. The mixture is stirred at 60° C. for 5 h before it is diluted with EA and washed with water. The org. extract is dried over MgSO4, filtered, concentrated and dried to give the title compound (280 mg) as a pale yellow oil; LC-MS: tR=0.72 min; [M+1+CH3CN]+=323.01.
