Reaction Steps

A solution of 0.5 g. of 2-(2-methylthiophenyl)oxazolo[4,5-b]pyridine in 50 ml. of acetone was treated with 3 g. of sodium metaperiodate. After stirring over the weekend at room temperature, the mixture was diluted with 30 ml. of water. The acetone was distilled out and the resulting precipitate was recrystallized to give 2-(2-methylsulfinylphenyl)oxazolo[4,5-b]pyridine, m.p. 153.5°-155.5° C.
