Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a flask containing anhydrous 2-propanol (40 mL), hydrazine hydrate (4 mL, and anhydrous THF (60 mL), at room temperature, was added 2-{5-chloro-2-(3-methylisoxazol-5-ylmethoxy)benzyl]isoindole-1,3-dione (5 g, 13 mmol). The reaction was stirred at 50° C. for 3 h. The solids were filtered and washed with THF. The filtrate was concentrated, dissolved in ether (100 ml) and washed with 1N NaOH (1×) and brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered and concentrated to afford the title product as a solid.
