Procedure

Magnesium turnings (0.5 g) were added to a mixture of methyl (E/Z) 3-[4-[2-[N-(2-benzoxazolyl)-N-methylamino]ethoxy]phenyl]-2-(4-chlorophenoxy)propanoate (0.98 g) and a crystal of iodine dissolved in methanol (50 mL) at room temperature. The mixture was warmed gently with a heat gum until reaction ensued, at which pint the heating was stopped and the mixture stirred at room temperature during the addition, over ca 5 minutes, of a further portion of magnesium (2.00 g). The reaction mixture was immersed in a cold water bath and stirring continued until all the metal had dissolved (~4 hrs), then the mixture was evaporated in vacuo. The residue was suspended in water (100 mL) and stirred vigorously during the addition of concentrated hydrochloric acid, to give (once all the suspension had dissolved) a final pH of 1.5. The mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (2×100 mL) and the combined ethyl acetate layers then washed with water (500 mL), brine (300 mL), dried (MgSO4) and evaporated. The resulting gum was chromatographed on silica gel with 3% ethyl acetate in dichloromethane as eluent to afford the title compound, mp 88°-90° C.
