Reaction Steps

A mixture of [1-[4-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolylmethoxy)benzyl]-4-phenyl-3-pyrrolyl]methanol (3.98 g), activated manganese dioxide (8.00 g), and toluene (50 ml) was stirred at 80° C. for 10 hours. After the manganese dioxide was removed by filtration, the filtrate was concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column chromatography, and 1-[4-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-oxazolylmethoxy)benzyl]-4-phenylpyrrole-3-carbaldehyde (2.85 g, yield: 72%) was obtained as colorless crystals from the fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (2:3, volume ratio). This was recrystallized from ethyl acetate-hexane. Melting point: 117–118° C.
