Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1-Phenyl-ethanone oxime (1.13 g), Methyl-5-(4-chloro-butyl)-2-methyl-[1,3]dioxane-2-carboxylate (prepared by processes known) (2.5 g) and cesium carbonate (4.0 g) in anhydrous dimethyl formamide was stirred at 60° C. for 18 hours in an inert atmosphere. The reaction mixture was cooled to ambient temperature, poured into ice cold water and extracted with ethyl-acetate. The combined organic extract was washed with water, brine solution, dried over sodium sulphate and evaporated under reduced pressure. Crude product was flash chromatographed over silica gel using 7% ethyl acetate in petroleum ether as eluent to obtain 2.5 g of pure product.
