Reaktionsschritte

Methyl 4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-5-oxazolepropionate (0.67 g) was dissolved in toluene (5 ml). To the obtained solution was added dropwise a mixture of a 70% toluene solution (0.81 g) of sodium dihydrobis(2-methoxyethoxy)aluminate, and toluene (5 ml) at 0° C., which was stirred at 0° C. for 1 hour. To the reaction mixture was carefully added a 10% aqueous solution of (+)-sodium potassium tartrate sesquihydrate (50 ml), which was stirred at room temperature for 1 hour. The precipitated crystals were filtered, washed in sequence with a 10% aqueous solution of (+)-sodium potassium tartrate sesquihydrate, pure water, and isopropyl ether, and air-dried to give crystals of 4-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-2-(2-methyl-1-imidazolyl)-5-oxazolepropanol (0.46 g, 74%). Recrystallization from acetone-hexane gave pale yellow prisms. Melting point 140-141° C.
