Reaction Steps

A mixture of [5-[3-[3-(trifluoromethoxy)phenyl]-1-benzofuran-5-yl]-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl]methyl acetate (230 mg, 0.550 mmol), 1M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution (1 mL) and methanol (4 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 20 min. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate, washed with water and saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from hexane/ethyl acetate to give the title compound (yield 85%) as colorless crystals.
