Participants

Reaction Steps

After suspending oxazole-4-carboxylic acid hydrazide (CAS 885274-12-4) (1.06 g) in ethyl acetate (10 ml), trichloromethyl chloroformate (1.21 ml) was added dropwise while stirring on ice. Upon completion of the dropwise addition, the mixture was heated to reflux for 2 hours and 20 minutes. It was then allowed to cool, n-heptane was added to the reaction mixture, and the precipitate was collected by filtration. The filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was recrystallized with toluene-ethyl acetate. This was combined with the previously filtered substance to obtain the title compound (1.38 g).
