Reaction Steps

A solution of [3-(4-cyano-phenyl)-isoxazol-4-yl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester (1.88, 6.6 mmol) in toluene (50 mL) was cooled to 0° C. under Ar. DIBAL (6.7 mL, 1M in CH2Cl2, 6.7 mmol) was added dropwise to the solution and the reaction mixture was allowed to warm to rt and stirred for 1 h. DIBAL (6.7 mL, 1M in CH2Cl2, 6.7 mmol) was added again and the reaction mixture was stirred an additional 30 min. Saturated, aqueous Rochelle salt was added and the reaction mixture was stirred overnight. The phases were extracted three times with ethyl acetate. The combined organic phases were washed with brine and dried over MgSO4. Filtration followed by removal of volatiles under reduced pressure afforded a waxy solid from which [3-(4-Formyl-phenyl)-isoxazol-4-yl]-carbamic acid tert-butyl ester was isolated as a white solid (1.34 g, 70%) by column chromatography (50% ethyl acetate in hexane).
