Procedure
A suspension of 75 g. (0.348 mole) of 3-phenyl-5,N-dimethyl-isoxazole-4-carboxamide and 1 liter of tetrahydrofuran is cooled to -65° C. and 478 ml. of 1.6M n-butyllithium in hexane (0.765 mole) is added dropwise maintaining the temperature between -60° and -70° C. After the addition is complete, the orange suspension is stirred for 11/2 hours at -60° to -70° C., and then 37.2 g. (0.350 mole) of benzaldehyde in 375 ml. tetrahydrofuran is added dropwise maintaining the temperature between -60° and -70° C. After addition is complete, the mixture is stirred 11/2 hours at -60° to -70° C. and then warmed to -30° C. and quenched by the addition of saturated ammonium chloride solution. The mixture is further diluted with tetrahydrofuran and the layers are separated. The tetrahydrofuran layer is washed twice with 50% brine, and once with brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, filtered and evaporated in vacuo. The solid residue is triturated with a 50:50 mixture of ether:petroleum ether, filtered and washed with cold ether to give 3-phenyl-5-(β-hydroxyphenethyl)-N-methyl-isoxazole-4-carboxamide, m.p. 183°-184° C.
