4-tert-Butylbenzoic acid → 2-(4-Tert-butylphenyl)-1,3-benzoxazol-5-amine

Participants

Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

8 mmol of 2,4-diaminophenol.2HCl and 8 mmol of 4-tert-butyl-benzoic acid were dissolved in 10 g of PPA, and then, the mixed solution was stirred at a temperature of 180° C. for 3 to 4 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reaction solution was cooled, neutralized with 10% NaOH, and filtered by using distilled water for recrystallization in a slow manner, thereby obtaining 2.0 g of 2-(4-tert-butylphenyl)benzo[d]oxazole-5-amine (Derivate #4) (yield: 94%).
