To this mixture was added isoamyl nitrite (2.52 g), and the mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 1.5 hours. To the reaction mixture was added a mixture of ethyl acetate and saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution. The mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for a while, and partitioned. The aqueous layer was reextracted with ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with saturated aqueous ammonium chloride solution and saturated aqueous sodium chloride solution, dried over magnesium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography eluted with 20% AcOEt/n-hexane. The pure fractions were collected and concentrated in vacuo to give 5-[4-(benzyloxy)phenyl]-3-chloro-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazole (2.81 g) as a solid.
