Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a pre-cooled solution of formyl hydrazine (40.3 g) in methanol (290 ml) at 0-5° C., toluene layer containing (S)-2-(benzyloxy)propanal compound of formula-15 obtained in step-b) was added. Slowly raised the temperature of reaction mixture to 25-30° C. and stirred for 4 hours at 25-30° C. After completion of the reaction, distilled off the solvent under reduced pressure to get title compound. Ethyl acetate (210 ml) was added to the obtained compound and stirred for 1 hour at 25-30° C. Filtered the reaction mixture to remove the unwanted solid and washed with ethyl acetate. Distilled off the solvent completely from the filtrate under reduced pressure to get semi-solid. Petroleum ether (210 ml) was added to the obtained semi-solid and stirred for 2 hours at 25-30° C. Filtered the precipitated solid, washed with petroleum ether and then dried to get title compound.
