Reaction Steps

A mixture of 1.63 g (0.0062 mole) of (7-methoxy-imidazo [2,1-b]benzothiazol-2-yl)-cyclopropyl methanol and 4.8 g (0.055 mole) of manganese dioxide was stirred under reflux in 300 ml of chloroform for 1 hour. The mixture was filtered hot and evaporated to dryness. Trituration with diethyl ether yielded 1.45 g (89% yield) of (7-methoxy-imidazo[2,1-b]benzothiazol-2-yl)-cyclopropyl methanone as a colorless solid melting at 213° as 214° C. (EtOH).
