Procedure: Ethyl oxanilate 83 (Aldrich, 1.0 g, 1.0 eq) in 12 mL of THF was treated dropwise with a 1N NaOH solution (5.70 mL, 1.1 eq) resulting in a white precipitate. After stirring for 3 hours at RT, 0.5N HCl and ethyl acetate were added, the organic layer separated, washed with 0.5N HCl and brine and then dried over sodium sulfate, filtered, and concentrated to give 712 mg (68%) of N-phenyl oxalamic acid 84 as a white solid with consistent analytical data. FIA M+H=166.0, M−H=163.9; 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ 10.70 (s, 1H), 7.75 (m, 2H), 7.35 (m, 2H), 7.15 (m, 1H) ppm. resulting in a white precipitate the organic layer separated washed with 0.5N HCl and brine dried over sodium sulfate filtered concentrated

Procedure: The electrochemical oxidation of tetraethylammonium oxanilate was carried out in an one-compartment cell (graphite anode, platinum cathode). The starting material was prepared by firstly reacting aniline and diethyloxalate to give ethyloxanilate which compound was then saponified with tetraethylammonium hydroxide; the yield was more than 90%.

Procedure: A solution of KOH (1.68 g, 30 mmol) in water (25 mL) and MeOH (25 mL) was added to Intermediate 1 (5.8 g, 30 mmol), and the resulting mixture was stirred for 18 hours at room temperature. The reaction was diluted with water, then extracted with EtOAc. The aqueous layer was cooled in an ice bath, acidified with 1N HCl, extracted with EtOAc, dried (Na2SO4), and concentrated in vacuo to provide 3.8 g (77%) of a colorless solid. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6) δ: 7.1–7.8 (m, 6H), 10.5 (s, 1H); MS ES+m/e 166.0 (p+1), ES−m/e 164.1 (p−1).

Procedure: Aniline (3.4 g, 37 mmol) was dissolved in pyridine (50 mL), then ethyl chloroxoacetate (5.0 g, 37 mmol) was added to the resulting solution dropwise. The resulting mixture was stirred at room temperature for 48 hours, then diluted with water and extracted twice with EtOAc. The combined organic extracts were washed with 1N HCl, water, brine, then dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated to provide 5.8 g (81%) of an oil that crystallized on standing. 1H-NMR (DMSO-d6) δ: 1.3 (t, J=7 Hz, 3H), 4.3 (q, J=7 Hz, 2H), 7.1–7.8 (m, 5H), 10.7 (s, 1H); MS ES+m/e 194.2 (p+1), ES−m/e 192.3 (p−1). extracted twice with EtOAc The combined organic extracts were washed with 1N HCl, water, brine dried (Na2SO4) concentrated
