Azabenzoxazoles: Synthesis of 3-Methylisoxazolo[5,4-c]- and 2-Methyloxazolo[5,4-c]pyridines

Abstract

A convenient synthesis of 4-acetyl-3-hydroxypyridine is reported; this compound allows the preparation of the new isoxazolob,4-c]-and oxazolo b,4-clpyridine ring systems.Because our interest in the chemistry of azahenzoxazoles, we previously reported la
