The present invention relates to a novel method for preparing (5S)-4-[5-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-isoxazol-3-yl]-2-methyl-benzoic acid, which can preferably be used in the synthesis of (5S)-4-[5-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-isoxazol-3-yl]-N-[2-oxo-2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethylamino)ethyl]-2-methyl-benzamide.

The present invention relates to a novel method for preparing (5S)-4-[5-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-isoxazol-3-yl]-2-methyl-benzoic acid, which can preferably be used in the synthesis of (5S)-4-[5-(3,5-dichlorophenyl)-5-(trifluoromethyl)-4H-isoxazol-3-yl]-N-[2-oxo-2-(2,2,2-trifluoroethylamino)ethyl]-2-methyl-benzamide.

Provided herein is salts of formula [A][B], wherein [A] is a cation form of a cycloserine compound and [B] is an anion form of a compound of Formula (I), wherein the ratio between the cycloserine compound and the compound of formula (I) ranges from 10:1 to 1:10. The salts described herein have improved properties, including greatly increased stability and decreased hygroscopicity. Also provided herein are methods for treating and/or reducing the risk of a neuropsychiatric disorder and/or a bacterial infectious disease (e.g., tuberculosis), comprising administering a subject in need a composition comprising salts of formula [A][B] described herein.

The present invention relates to a novel process for preparing dihydroisoxazole derivatives.
