Reaction Steps

A mixture of methyl (3-hydroxy-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)acetate (255 mg), 5-chloromethyl-2-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-thiazolylmethoxy)pyridine (496 mg), potassium carbonate (415 mg) and N,N-dimethylformamide (10 ml) was stirred at 60° C. for 5 hrs. The reaction mixture was poured into water and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated brine, dried (MgSO4) and concentrated. The residue was subjected to silica gel column. chromatography, and methyl [1-methyl-3-[6-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-4-thiazolylmethoxy)-3-pyridylmethoxy]-1H-pyrazol-4-yl]acetate (501 mg, yield 72%) was obtained as a colorless oil from a fraction eluted with ethyl acetate-hexane (2:1, volume ratio).
