sion of compound IIIb in 30 ml of polyphosphoric
acid was heated at 100 C for 14 h. The reaction mix-
ture was left to stand for 12 h at 20 C, poured into
200 ml of water, stirred for 10 min, and the water was
decanted. The oily residue was dissolved in 30 ml of
ethanol, and 150 ml of water and 30 ml of saturated
sodium perchlorate were added to the solution. The
precipitate that formed was filtered off, washed with
water, dried in air, after which it was dissolved in
150 ml of boiling ethanol and left to stand for 12 h at
20 C. Compound VIb was filtered off and purified by

2,5-Diphenyl-4-methyl-1,3-oxazole (VIIa). To a
suspension of 0.5 mmol of compound Va in 5 ml of
ethanol, a solution of 0.6 mmol of sodium methylate
in 0.15 ml of methanol was added. The reaction mix-
ture was left to stand for 12 h at 20 C, volatile com-
pounds were removed in a vacuum, and the residue
was treated with 2 ml of diethyl ether. The precipitate
was filtered off, the filtrate was evaporated, and com-
pound VIIa was purified by crystallization from
ethanol. The melting point of this sample coincides
with that of the authentic sample of 2,5-diphenyl-4-
methyl-1,3-oxazole, obtained according to [10].
