Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-[2-chloro-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-oxazolyl]butanoic acid (2.03 g), potassium carbonate (2.76 g), benzimidazole (1.18 g) and N,N-dimethylformamide (30 mL) was stirred at 120° C. for 4 hrs. The reaction mixture was poured into water, and the precipitated crystals were collected by filtration, washed with water and dried to give 4-[2-(1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)-4-(4-chlorophenyl)-5-oxazolyl]butanoic acid (2.22 g, yield 82%). Recrystallization from tetrahydrofuran-ethanol gave colorless needle crystals. melting point: 199–200° C.
