Procedure

17.35 mmol of 5-amino-4-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-4-pentanol is dissolved in 10 ml. of absolute dimethylformamide and reacted with 18.3 mmol of 98% strength carbonyl diimidazole in 100 ml. of absolute tetrahydrofuran for 4 days at room temperature under the exclusion of moisture. After the solvent has been distilled off, the residue is taken up in ethyl acetate, extracted twice with 1 N hydrochloric acid, and washed neutral with saturated sodium chloride solution. The thus-obtained oil is purified by way of a silica gel column (350 g.) in a chloroform/methanol system 30:1. The product is 5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-5-propyl-2-oxazolidinone in an 81.7% yield in the form of an oil.
