Participants

Reaction Steps

730 mg of 1,1-dichloro-3-[1-(2-fluorobenzyl)indazole-3-carboxamido]-but-1-ene (1.86 mmol) and 3.75 ml of NaOH, 1N (3.75 mmol) were stirred in 7.4 ml of N-methylpyrrolidone at 50° C. under argon overnight. After cooling, the mixture was poured onto ice-water and the product which had precipitated out was filtered off and dried. Finally, it was purified by column chromatography (SiO2, cyclohexane:ethyl acetate 2:1). 375 mg (60%) of 2-[1-(2-fluorobenzyl)indazol-3-yl]-5-hydroxymethyl-4-methyl-oxazole were obtained as white crystals.
