The mixture was cooled to 0° C. and LiBHEt3 (315 mL of a 1.0 M solution in THF, 315 mmol, 3.0 eq.) was added slowly through an addition funnel under nitrogen. After addition, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 4 h. Additional LiBHEt3 (30 mL of a 1.0 M solution in THF, 30 mmol, 0.3 eq.) was added and the mixture was stirred for an additional 1 h. The mixture was slowly treated with EtOAc (600 mL) and then water (300 mL). The layers were separated and the aqueous phase was extracted with EtOAc (2×300 mL). The combined organic phases were dried over anhydrous Na2SO4. After filtration and concentration, the residue was purified by a short silica gel column (2.5 inch in height and 4 inch in diameter) using MeOH in CH2Cl2 as the eluent. Concentration by rotary evaporation provided (7-amino-2-methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-6-yl)methanol (1-1) as a light yellowish solid.
