Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-(3-cyano-5-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (20 mg, 0.077 mmol), potassium carbonate (107 mg, 0.77 mmol) and propyl iodide (0.023 mL, 0.23 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (1 mL) were heated in a sealed vial at 150° C. for 5 minutes. After cooling the reaction was diluted with dichloromethane, washed with water (3 times) and saturated brine, filtered and concentrated. Silica gel chromatography using a mixture of hexanes, ethyl acetate, and dichloromethane (3.5:0.5:4) followed by trituration with diethyl ether and hexanes afforded 9 mg (40%) of 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-(3-cyano-5-propoxyphenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole: 1H NMR (CDCl3): δ-8.86 (d, 1H), 8.23 (d, 1H), 8.14 (s, 1H), 8.00 (s, 1H), 7.91 (t, 1H), 7.49 (m, 1H) 7.39 (s, 1H), 4.06 (t, 2H), 1.88 (m, 2H), 1.08 (t, 3H).
