Reaction Steps

To a suspension of (R)-5-(2-(5-fluoro-2-methoxypyridin-3-yl) pyrrolidin-1-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxylic acid (Preparation B; 5.01 g, 14.0 mmol) in MeOH (150 mL) was added dropwise TMSCHN2 (8.41 mL, 16.8 mmol). The reaction was stirred for 30 minutes, and then quenched with 1 mL of acetic acid. The solvent was removed under reduced pressure and the residue was dried under high vacuum to give the crude methyl ester. To the crude methyl ester was added 4N HCl in dioxane (100 mL) and the reaction was sealed and heated to 90° C. for 2 hours. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure and the residue was dissolved in DCM (100 mL) and washed with saturated NaHCO3 (40 mL). The organic layer was dried over Na2SO4, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure to give the crude desired product (4.67 g, 93.2% yield). MS (apci) m/z=357.9 (M+H).
