Reaktionsschritte

To a solution of ethyl 4-(1H-pyrazol-1-yl)benzoate (73.7 g) in THF (500 mL) were added sodium borohydride (19.5 g) and calcium chloride (56.8 g) under ice-cooling, and the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 16 hr, and then heated with reflux for 2 days. The reaction mixture was diluted with 1N hydrochloric acid, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate (×4). The organic layer was washed with saturated brine, and dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate. The solvent was evaporated under reduced pressure, and the residue was washed with tert-butyl methyl ether to give the title compound (49.6 g).
