Procedure

To a 5-gallon reaction vessel was added methyl 4-(5-cyano-7-isopropenyl-1,3-benzoxazol-2-yl)benzoate (40.6 g, Step A), tetrahydrofuran (4 L), and 10% palladium on carbon (8 g). The reaction mixture was heated to 60° C. under 10 psi of hydrogen for 3 h, and then filtered through Celite, washing generously with dichloromethane. Concentration of the eluent in vacuo provided 40.5 g (99%) of the title compound. Mass spectrum (ESI) 321.1 (M+).
