Participants

Reaction Steps

A stirred solution of 2-(3-fluoro-4-nitro-phenyl)oxazole (500 mg, 2.40 mmol) in methanol (10 mL) was added to stannous chloride (2.7 g, 12.01 mmol) under nitrogen atmosphere and stirred for 16 h. The reaction mixture was diluted with water and filtered through Celite. The filtrate was basified with bicarbonate solution and extracted with ethyl acetate. The organic layer was washed with water, brine, dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuo to afford 2-fluoro-4-oxazol-2-yl aniline (350 mg, 83%) as a yellow colour solid.
