Participants

Reaction Steps

SLA 07092 was prepared in accordance with method D using pyridine-4-carbaldehyde (1.88 mL, 19.76 mmol), KOH (1.01 g, 18.00 mmol) in methanol (18 mL) and 2-isocyano-1-(pyrrolidin-1-yl)ethanone BLE 04098 (2.73 g, 19.76 mmol). The residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate (200 mL) and water (150 mL). The organic layer was combined with additional ethyl acetate extracts (2×150 mL), washed with aqueous sodium chloride (2×150 mL) and dried over MgSO4, filtered and evaporated. Trans-(4,5-dihydro-5-(pyridin-4-yl)oxazol-4-yl)(pyrrolidin-1-yl)methanone Compound 19 was obtained as a white solid (4.32 g, 98% yield).
