Abstract: The present invention provides a process for the preparation of the compound 1-[5-(3-chloro-phenyl)-isooxazol-3-yl]-ethanone: Wherein the compound 5-(3-chlorophenyl)-isooxazol-3-carboxylate is reacted with CH3MgX. The present invention also provides a process for the preparation of (R)-1-[5-(3-chloro-phenyl)-isooxazol-3-yl]-ethanol: Wherein 1-[5-(3-chloro-phenyl)-isooxazol-3-yl]-ethanone is reduced to (R)-1-[5-(3-chloro-phenyl)-isooxazol-3-yl]-ethanol.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of manufacturing a compound according to formula (I) wherein R is C1-6alkylor C5-10aryl-C1-6alkyl, comprising the steps of: a) reacting isonicotinohydrazide and methyl isothiocyanate, thereby obtaining 2-isoni-cotinoyl-N-methylhydrazinecarbothioamide; b) under alkaline conditions allowing said 2-isonicotinoyl-N-methylhydrazinecar-bothioamide to undergo a ring-forming reaction, thereby obtaining 4-methyl-5-pyridin-4-yl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione; and c) under alkaline conditions allowing said 4-methyl-5-pyridin-4-yl-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-thione to react with R—X, wherein R has the same meaning as in formula I and X is selected from the group of Cl, Br and I, thereby obtaining a compound according to formula I; wherein steps a), b) and c) are carried out in an aqueous environment without intermediate isolations.
