tert-butyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (5 g, 29.73 mmol) was dissolved in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml) at room temp. In a separate flask was added n-butyllithium (2.5M solution in hexane, 29.73 ml, 74.33 mmol) and was cooled to −15° C. The 1-tert-butyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid solution was added dropwise to the n-Butyllithium solution, maintaining internal temperature below −10° C. The total addition time lasted 30 min. The resulting brownish suspension was stirred and maintained between −10° C. and −15° C. for 40 min. The reaction was then cooled to −15° C. to −20° C. A solution of hexachloroethane (14.08 g, 59.46 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (50 ml) was added dropwise, maintaining internal temperature below −10° C. The total addition time lasted 20 min. After the addition, the resulting dark brownish solution was stirred at −10° C. to −15° C. for 30 min and was warmed up to room temp. over 1 h. The reaction mixture was then cooled to 15° C. and water (50 ml) was added slowly, maintaining internal temperature below 20° C. 120 ml of organic solvents were distilled under reduced pressure at 25° C. water bath leading to a suspension. Heptane (50 ml) was added leading to a clear brownish biphasic solution. After stirring at room temp. for 15 min, the aqueous layer (pH=11.8) was separated. The organic layer was extracted once with NaOH (1N, 20 ml). The combined aqueous phase was washed with heptane (25 ml) and was cooled in an ice-bath. Hydrochloric acid (6N) was added to adjust pH=2, maintaining internal temperature below 20° C. The suspension was stirred in the ice-bath at 0-5° C. for 1 h and the solid was filtered and washed with water (40 ml). After drying in vacuo at 60° C. for 18 h, 1-tert-butyl-5-chloro-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (5.28 g) was obtained as a light yellow solid.
