Reaction Steps

8.9 mmol of 5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-2-oxazolidinone is combined with 10 ml. of acetic anhydride and 5 ml. of pyridine and heated for 5 hours to 100°. After concentrating the reaction mixture, it is recrystallized from ethyl acetate, thus obtaining 3-acetyl-5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-2-oxazolidinone in a 73% yield, m.p. 175°-182°.
