Abstract

Two carbon homologation of isoxazole-4-carbinols was performed by reaction of lithio-2,4,4-trimethyl-∆2-oxazoline 1 with 4-chloromethyl-isoxazole 2, followed by trans-esterification and reduction to the isoxazole-4-propanols 5a and b. Alternatively, 2,4-diketones 6 were alkylated with l-bromo-3-chloro-propane, and the chloro ketones 7 treated with hydroxylamine to give isoxazole-4-propanols, 5a-c.
