Triethylamine → 4-Ethoxycarbonyl-5-methyl-3-(2-iodo-6-fluoro-phenyl)isoxazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-iodo-6-fluorobenzoyl chloride oxime (26.6 mmol) and ethyl-2-butynoate (3.72 ml, 31.92 ml, 1.2 eq.) in Et2O (106 ml) under N2, stirring at 0-5° C. added dropwise a solution of Et3N (4.81 ml, 34.6 mmol, 1.3 eq) in Et2O (13 ml) over 1 h. The reaction was allowed to warm to room temperature and stirred overnight. Et2O was added and then washed with H2O, brine, dried (MgSO4), filtered, and concentrated. The crude residue was chromatographed on silica gel using ethyl acetate in hexanes (1-20%) to give the title compound (8.21 g, 82%).
