Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(1,3-dioxolan-2-yl)propyl 4-cyanobenzoate (1.00 g, 4.38 mmol) in ethanol (5 mL), was added hydroxylamine (50% aqueous solution, 5 mL), and the mixture heated at 80° C. for 4 hours. The reaction was diluted with saturated brine and extracted with ethyl acetate (×3). The combined organic fractions were dried with magnesium sulphate, and the solvent evaporated at reduced pressure. The material was used directly in the next step without further purification.
