An exemplary approach to fluoxastrobin is illustrated in Scheme 1. According to Scheme 1, the synthesis begins with chlorination of diethyl malonate (1) with a suitable chlorinating agent, for example, sulfuryl chloride. The resulting diethyl 2-chloromalonate (2) is converted to diethyl 2-fluoromalonate (3) with a suitable fluorinating reagent, such as a hydrogen fluoride-triethylamine complex. The ensuing cyclization in formamide provides 5-fluoropyrimidine-4,6-diol (4), which is treated with a suitable chlorinating agent, for example phosphorus oxychloride to give 4,6-dichloro-5-fluoropyrimidine (5). As further indicated in Scheme 2, 4,6-dichloro-5-fluoropyrimidine (5) is reacted with (E)-(5,6-dihydro-1,4,2-dioxazin-3-yl)(2-hydroxyphenyl)methanone O-methyl oxime (13) in an appropriate solvent and in the presence of a base to yield (E)-(2-((6-halo-5-fluoropyrimidin-4-yl)oxy)phenyl)(5,6-dihydro-1,4,2-dioxazin-3-yl)methanone O-methyl oxime (14), which is further reacted with 2-chlorophenol to give fluoxastrobin. As described above, the last two steps of the synthesis may be carried out as a one-pot process, i.e. without isolation of the intermediate, (E)-(2-((6-halo-5-fluoropyrimidin-4-yl)oxy)phenyl)(5,6-dihydro-1,4,2-dioxazin-3-yl)methanone O-methyl oxime (14).
