The solids were removed via filtration through diatomaceous earth and washed with EtOAc and DCM. The filtrate was washed with water, the aqueous layer back-extracted with DCM (4×) and the combined organics were dried over Na2SO4, concentrated to dryness and purified via silica gel chromatography (MeOH/DCM) to afford 5-((2-(1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)pyridin-4-yl)oxy)pyridin-2-amine (6.4 g, 60%). MS (ESI) m/z: 268.1 (M+H+).
