2-Pyridin-2-yl-3-quinolin-4-yl-pyrazolo[5,1-c]morpholin-4-one → 2-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-3-hydroxymethyl-5-pyridin-2-yl-4-quinolin-4-yl-pyrazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-pyridin-2-yl-3-quinolin-4-yl-pyrazolo[5,1-c]morpholin-4-one (0.50 g, 1.46 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) is added LiAlH4 (0.50 g, 13.1 mmol) at room temperature. The mixture is stirred for 2 h quenched with 1 N sodium hydroxide solution, and partitioned between dichloromethane and water. The organic portion is dried (sodium sulfate), filtered, and concentrated in vacuo. The residue is chromatographed on SiO2 (10% methanol/dichloromethane) to yield the title compound, 0.35 g (70%), as an off-white solid.
