A process for the preparation of 5-methyl-isoxazole-4-carboxylic acid anilides of the formula in which an aniline of the formula is reacted with a 5-methyl-isoxazole derivative of the formula

A preferred process forthe preparation of the compounds ::

of the formula I is the reaction ofthe carboxylic acid chloride of the formula VI with an aniline of the formula V. It is advan-tageous here to carry out the reaction in the presence of acid binding agents, such as potassium carbonate or sodium carbonate, alkali metal or alkaline earth metal hydroxides or alcoholates, organic bases, for example triethylamine, pyridine, picoline or quinoline or an excess of the particular aniline employed, at temperatures between 0 and 160C, preferably between 20 and 80C.
The reaction times can be from a few minutes up to two hours.
The 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula VI, required as starting materials for the process according to theinvention, are obtained in a manner which is in itself known (compare German Patent 634,286) by reaction of ethoxymethylideneacetoacetic acid ester with hydroxylamine to give a 5-methyl-isoxazole-4-carboxylic acid ester, by acid saponi-fication of the ester thus obtained, preferably using a mixture of glacial acetic acid and concentrated hydrochloric acid in a ratio of 1:1, to give 5-methyl-isoxazole-4-carboxylic acid and by conversion of this carboxylic acid by customary methods into the carboxylic acid halides, esters or anhydrides. The 5-methyl-isoxazole-4-carboxylic acids can also be activated by reaction with a carbodiimide, for example dicyclohexylcarbodiimide.
Possible carboxylic acid derivatives of the formula ~I
are 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid phenyl ester, in particu-lar also the 2,4-dichloro-phenyl ester and the 2,4,6-trichloro-phenyl ester, and furthermore 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid anhydrides, in particular those in which X denotes the methoxycarbonyloxy radical, the ethoxycarbonyloxy radical or the l~S05~

benzyloxycarbonyloxy radical.
The compounds of the formula I are pharmacologically active. They have a strong antiphlogistic and analgesic action.
Preparation examples 1. 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid 4-fluoro-anilide of the formula I
al) A solution of 7.3 g (0.05 mole) of 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylic acid chloride of the formula VI in 20 ml of acetoni-trile is added dropwise, whilst stirring, at room temperature to 0.1 mole of 4-fluoroaniline of the formula V (11.1 g), dissolved in 200 ml of acetonitrile. After stirring for a further 15 minutes, the crystals which have precipitated are filtered off and rinsed with twice 20 ml of acetonitrile and the combined filtrates are brought to dryness under reduced pressure. This gives 10.8 g (98% of theory) of an oily residue which crystal-lizes after trituration.
Melting point after recrystallization from water:
117 to 118C.
a2) When 0.05 mole of triethylamine (10.1 g) is used as the acid-binding agent instead of the 4-fluoroaniline of the formula V, the oily residue is digested with water. The crystals thus obtained are filtered off and washed with water. ~ft~r dry-ing in air, this gives 10.6 g (96% of theory~ of colorless crystals whichj after recrystallization from water, melt at 117 to 118C.
b) 0.1 mole of 4-fluoroaniline of the formula V ( 11.1 g) and 0.1 mole of 4-bromophenyl 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylate of the formula Vl (28.2 g) dissolved in 50 ml of acetonitrile are heated under reflux for 90 minutes. Subsequently the solution . .
, , :

is evaporated under reduced pressure and the residue is digested with petroleum ether. This gives 15.6 g (71% of theory) of an oily residue which crystallizes after spreading out. Melting point after recrystallization from water: 117 to 11~C.
c) 0.1 mole of 4-fluoroaniline of the formula V (11.1 g) and 0.1 mole of ethoxycarbonyl 5-methylisoxazole-4-carboxylate of the formula VI (19.9 g), dissolved in 60 ml of tetrahydro-furane, are heated under reflux for 60 minutes. The reaction mixture is then brought to dryness and this gives 17.1 g (78% of theory) of a crystalline residue which, after recrystallization from water, melts at 117 to 118C.
The compounds listed in Table 1 were prepared by the process indicated above.
