Procedure
A mixture of 5-Benzyl-oxazole-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (0.95 g, 3.5 mmol) and lithiumhydroxide-hydrate (0.73 g, 17.5 mmol) in 20 mL MeOH and 10 mL water was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The mixture was evaporated in vacuo, extracted with hexane and the aq. layer was acidified with 1 N aq. HCl. After extraction with ethyl acetate, the organic layer was dried over MgSO4, and evaporated to yield the crude product which was used in the next step without further purification. LCMS (method A) RtA=1.350 min; [M+H]+=203.9.
