Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of [2-(6-Chloro-pyridin-3-yl)-5-methyl-oxazol-4-yl]-acetic acid methyl ester (4.0 g, 15 mmol) from step B in THF (50 mL) is added a solution of lithium aluminum hydride in THF (1.0 M, 12.5 mL, 12.5 mmol) at 0° C. After 1 hr, the reaction is quenched by water and sodium hydroxide, filtered, concentrated. The crude material is used for the next step.
