Reaction Steps

To a solution of 2-amino-4-difluoromethyl-5-(2-methyl-2H-pyrazol-3-yl)-benzoic acid methyl ester (200 mg, 0.71 mmol) in DCM (15 mL), was added (CCl3O)2CO (151 mg, 0.7 equiv). The resulting mixture was stirred at r.t. for 1 h. The solvent was removed in vacuo and the residue was solubilized in THF. CH3SO2NHNH2 (86 mg, 1.1 equiv) was added and, after stirring at r.t. for 1 h, the mixture was treated with aq NaOH (1N, 0.78 mL) for 30 min. The solvent was removed in vacuo and water was added. The pH was adjusted to 3-4 by addition of 1N aq HCl. The aqueous phase was extracted with AcOEt (2×). The organic phases were combined, washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4) and concentrated in vacuo to afford a crude solid. This solid was triturated in 15 mL of DCM/hexanes (1/1). The resulting solid was filtered off, washed with hexanes and dried to afford the title compound as an off-white solid (150 mg, 55%).
