Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl [3-[2-[(4,5-diphenyloxazol-2-yl)methyl]-1-cyclopenten-1-yl]phenoxy]acetate (1.0 g) in methylene chloride (20 ml) were added m-chloroperbenzoic acid (540 mg) and sodium carbonate (330 mg) at room temperature. After being stirred for 4 hours, the mixture was washed with saturated sodium bicarbonate aqueous solution and brine. The dried solvent was evaporated and the residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give ethyl [3-[2-[(4,5-diphenyloxazol-2-yl)methyl]-1,2-epoxycyclopentyl]phenoxy]acetate (700 mg).
