Reaction Steps

A −15° C. solution of N-BOC propargyl amine (651 mg, 4.2 mmole, 3.5 eq) in dry THF (12 ml) was treated dropwise with a 1.6M n-BuLi in hexanes solution (5.25 ml, 8.4 mmole, 7.0 eq) and the pale yellow dianion solution was stirred at −15° C. for 30 minutes under nitrogen. A dry THF solution (3 ml) of the above-prepared 4-methyl-2-phenyl-oxazole-5-carboxylic acid methoxy-methyl-amide (296 mg, 1.2 mmole, 1.0 eq) was added dropwise to the dianion solution at −15° C. and the mixture stirred at 0° C. for 2 hours under nitrogen. The mixture was quenched by adding a solution of 2M NaH2PO4 (5 ml), warmed to room temperature, and then extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic phase was washed with water and brine then dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to provide the title compound as a crude brown oil. The crude oil was used immediately in the next step without further purification.
