Reaction Steps

A solution of ethyl 5-[2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethyl]-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate (75.2 g, 230 mmol) in 1 M aqueous hydrochloric acid (450 mL) and acetic acid (450 mL) was heated at 100° C. (internal temperature) for 5.2 hours, cooled to ambient temperature, and stirred for about 12 hours. A white solid was isolated by filtration, washed with water, and dried to provide 52.6 g of 5-[2-(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)ethyl]-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid.
