The reaction mixture is stirred for 1 hour at 70° C. The solvent is removed under vacuum and 100 ml of water are then added to the residue. The watery layer is extracted twice with ethyl acetate (2×150 ml) and the combined organic layers are successively washed by a 1 N solution of HCl, a saturated solution of potassium carbonate and filtered over a Chemelut™ cardridge to yield after concentration 350 mg of a beige oil. Column chromatography on silica gel (gradient heptane/ethyl acetate) yields 300 mg (71% yield) of [3-(difluoromethyl)-5-fluoro-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl][2-(3-methylbenzyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl]-methanone as a colourless oil (M+H=352).
