The reaction was stirred at ambient temperature for about 16 h. The reaction mixture was concd under reduced pressure to afford a residue. The residue was partitioned between water (20 mL) and DCM (20 mL). The layers were separated and the aqueous layer was extracted with DCM (3×10 mL). The extract was then washed with saturated aqueous NaHCO3, dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered, and concd under reduced pressure to afford a crude oil. The crude material was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with a gradient of 0-10% MeOH in DCM to 3-ethyl-4-(6H-pyrrolo[2,3-e][1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a]pyrazin-1-yl)cyclopentyl benzoate (2.30 g, 78%) as a red tinted solid. LC/MS (Table 1, Method a) Rt=2.08 min; MS m/z: 376 (M+H)+.
