Reaction Steps

N-(3-(5-chloro-2-methoxyphenyl)-1H-pyrazol-4-yl)pyrazolo pyrimidine-3-carboxamide (2.0 g, 5.4 mmol), t-butyl-bromoacetate (0.88 mL, 6.0 mmol), and cesium carbonate (2.1 g, 6.5 mmol) were combined and stirred at 30° C. overnight. The mixture was warmed to 65° C. at which time additional carbonate and t-butylbromoacetate was added and stirred 8 hrs. The mixture was cooled to ambient temperature and stirred overnight, then partitioned EtOAc/water. The organic phase was separated, washed with brine, dried (Na2SO4), filtered through silica gel, and concentrated to a solid. The solid was washed with 1:1 EtOAc/hexanes to yield 1.85 g (71%) of tert-butyl 2-(3-(5-chloro-2-methoxyphenyl)-4-(pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine-3-carboxamido)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)acetate as yellow crystals. LCMS (ESI) m+H=483.0. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 9.74 (s, 1H), 8.77 (m, 1H), 8.73 (s, 1H), 8.51 (m, 1H0, 8.38 (s, 1H), 8.02 (s, 1H), 7.58 (s, 1H), 7.31 (m, 1H), 6.97 (m, 2H), 4.85 (s, 2H), 3.83 (s, 3H), 1.49 (s, 9H).
