Previously unknown 3-(1-imidazoyl)-6-methoxy-2-benzoxazolinone was isolated as a byproduct of the synthesis of reproductive-simulant 6-methoxybenzoxazolinone (6-MBOA) with 1,1'-carbonyldiimidazole.Concomitant with byproduct formation was a 34percent reduction in the yield of the desired 6-MBOA.A brief discussion of the formation of this byproduct and maximization of the yield of 6-MBOA is included.
