Procedure

A 5-l round bottom flask containing sodium hydride (60% dispersion, 180 g, 4.5 mole) and tetrahydrofuran (1.5 l) is cooled to 0° C. and 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol (516 mL, 7.2 mole) is added over 1 hour. A separate 12-l round bottom flask containing {4-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-hydroxymethyl-oxazol-2-yl]-piperidin-1-yl} acetonitrile (300 g, 0.90 mole), tetrahydrofuran (6.0 l) and triethylamine (500 mL, 3.6 mole) is cooled to -3° C. then methanesulfonic anhydride (360 g, 2.1 mole) is added in one portion. The resulting suspension is stirred for 30 minutes then the 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol sodium salt solution in the 5-l round bottom flask is added in one portion. The resulting slurry is warmed to room temperature, stirred for 1 hour, concentrated to a semi-solid and water (4.5 l) is added. The suspension is washed with methyl t-butylether (2×3 L). The combined organic extracts are washed with water (1.5 l), saturated aqueous sodium chloride (1.5 l), dried over sodium sulfate (100 g), filtered and concentrated to 1 l. To effect crystallization, heptane (4 l) is added. The resulting slurry is cooled to 0° C., the solids are collected by filtration and dried to constant weight to give {4-[5-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(2,2,2-trifluoroethoxymethyl)-oxazol-2-yl]-piperidin-1-yl} acetonitrile (318 g, 0.801 mole).
