Reaction Steps

A mixture of 5-hydroxy-2-methoxyisonicotinaldehyde (107 mg, 0.70 mmol, 1 eq.), ethyl 2-(5-(3-(chloromethyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)acetate hydrochloride (220 mg, 0.70 mmol, 1 eq.), and K2CO3 (386 mg, 2.8 mmol, 4 eq.) in DMF (6.0 mL) was heated at 70° C. for 2 h. The mixture was cooled, filtered, concentrated, and purified on silica gel using a mixture of EtOAc and hexanes as eluent to give ethyl 2-(5-(3-((4-formyl-6-methoxypyridin-3-yloxy)methyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)acetate (261 mg, 94%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 10.45 (s, 1H), 8.69 (d, J=3.8 Hz, 1H), 8.02 (s, 1H), 8.01 (d, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 7.63 (d, J=1.6 Hz, 1H), 7.40 (dd, J=7.6, 4.0 Hz, 1H), 7.13 (s, 1H), 6.53 (d, J=1.6 Hz, 1H), 5.30 (s, 2H), 5.28 (s, 2H), 4.12 (q, J=7.1 Hz, 2H), 3.93 (s, 3H), 1.18 (t, J=7.1 Hz, 3H). LRMS (M+H+) m/z 397.1.
