反应详情

12.72 g (49.2 mmoles) of 2-carboxy-5-hydroxybenzoxazole is dissolved in 200 ml of n-propanol and 1 drop of concentrated sulfuric acid is added. The mixture is refluxed for 30 hours, concentrated. The resulting solid is suspended in water, neutralized with sodium bicarbonate and filtered, washing the solid with water, then drying. This gives n-propyl-5-hydroxybenzoxazole-2carboxylate which is purified by recrystallization from n-propanol/acetone or by HPLC.
