Procedure

2-Aminophenol (200 mg) and 4-piperidinecarboxylic acid (236 mg) were mixed with polyphosphoric acid (1 g) and stirred with heating at 180° C. for 2 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the reaction was stopped by adding water. The filtrate was adjusted to pH 12 with 50% potassium hydroxide aqueous solution and then extracted with methylene chloride. The organic layer was washed with saturated brine and dried with magnesium sulfate, and then the solvent was evaporated under a reduced pressure to obtain the title compound 2-(4-piperidyl)benzoxazole (311.5 mg).
