Reaction Steps

Sodium hydride (60% dispersion in mineral oil, 243 mg, 6.07 mmol) was suspended in 4 mL anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide. To this solution was added 4-iodo-1H-pyrazole (982 mg, 5.06 mmol) in 4 mL anhydrous N,N-dimethylformamide at 0° C. under nitrogen. The mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 15 min, and then allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirred at the same temperature for 2 hrs. After this period of time, a solution of 2-chloro-3-trifluoromethyl-pyridine (1.01 g, 5.56 mmol) in 4 mL N,N-dimethylformamide was added and the mixture was heated at 90° C. for 5 hrs. After cooling off, the mixture was poured into water and extracted with ethyl acetate three times. The combined extract was washed with brine, dried over sodium sulfate, and concentrated in vacuo to give 2-(4-iodo-pyrazol-1-yl)-3-trifluoromethyl-pyridine as a white solid (1.406 g, 74% yield). The product was used for the next step without purification. 1H-NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): δ 7.48 (dd, 1H, J=4.80, J=8.08), 7.79 (s, 1H), 8.21 (dd, 1H, J=1.52, J=8.08), 8.27 (s, 1H), 8.67 (dd, 1H, J=1.52, J=4.80).
