Reaction Steps

A mixture of 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-(3-cyano-5-hydroxyphenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole (30 mg, 0.11 mmol), potassium carbonate (31 mg, 0.23 mmol) and methyl bromoacetate (16 μL, 0.17 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (1 mL) was heated in a sealed vial at 100° C. for 2 hours. The reaction was cooled, diluted with dichloromethane, washed with water (3×) and saturated brine, filtered and concentrated. Silica gel chromatography using hexanes:ethyl acetate:dichloromethane 3.5:0.5:4 followed by trituration with diethyl ether afforded 10 mg (26%) of 3-(2-pyridyl)-5-(3-cyano-5-(2-methoxy-2-oxoethoxy) phenyl)-1,2,4-oxadiazole: 1H NMR (CDCl3), δ (ppm): 8.87 (d, 1H), 8.23 (d, 1H), 8.22 (s, 1H), 8.01 (s, 1H), 7.92 (t, 1H), 7.50 (t, 1H), 7.42 (s, 1H), 4.81 (s, 2H), 3.86 (s, 3H).
