Tetrabutylammonium Fluoride → 5-Amino-1-(4-fluorophenyl)4-[3-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzoyl]pyrazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 5-amino-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-[3-(2-tert-butyldimethylsiloxyethyl)-benzoyl]pyrazole (1.2 g, 3.0 mmol) in tetrahydrofuran (25 ml) was added tetrabutylammonium fluoride (3.6 ml, 3.6 mmol, 1 M solution in tetrahydrofuran). After 1 h, the reaction mixture was poured into brine and the product was extracted into ethyl acetate. The organic layer was dried over sndium sulfate, filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The residue was purified by flash chromatiwaphy (elution gradient: 40-100% ethyl acetate/hexane) to give 5-amino-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-[3-(2-hydroxyethyl)benzoyl]pyrazole (0.8 g).
