Reaction Steps

In analogy to the procedure described in example 120 f], [rac]-2-ethoxy-3-(4-hydroxy-2-methyl-phenyl)-propionic acid ethyl ester (example 129 c]) was reacted with 4-chloromethyl-2-(4-ethyl-phenyl)-5-methyl-oxazole (example 122 a]) in the presence of potassium carbonate and potassium iodide to yield [rac]-2-ethoxy-3-{4-[2-(4-ethyl-phenyl)-5-methyl-oxazol-4-ylmethoxy]-2-methyl-phenyl}-propionic acid ethyl ester, which was further saponified in analogy to the procedure described in example 120 f] to yield [rac]-2-ethoxy-3-{4-[2-(4-ethyl-phenyl)-5-methyl-oxazol-4-ylmethoxy]-2-methyl-phenyl}-propionic acid as light yellow solid.
