Reaction Steps

To ethyl 2-(5-(3-((4-formyl-6-methoxypyridin-3-yloxy)methyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)acetate (182 mg, 0.46 mmol, 1 eq.) in a mixture of MeOH/THF (1/5, 12.0 mL) was added NaOH (2N, 2.3 mL, 4.6 mmol, 10 eq.). The mixture was stirred at rt for 2 h, acidified to pH 3, and extracted with EtOAc (3×20 mL). The combined organic layers were dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to give 2-(5-(3-((4-formyl-6-methoxypyridin-3-yloxy)methyl)pyridin-2-yl)-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)acetic acid (135.1 mg, 80%) as a white solid. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3) δ 10.42 (s, 1H), 8.71 (d, J=4.7 Hz, 1H), 8.13 (d, J=7.8 Hz, 1H), 7.97 (s, 1H), 7.66 (d, J=1.6 Hz, 1H), 7.52 (dd, J=7.9, 4.9 Hz, 1H), 7.13 (s, 1H), 6.56 (d, J=1.7 Hz, 1H), 5.31 (s, 2H), 5.14 (s, 2H), 3.91 (s, 3H). LRMS (M+H+) m/z 369.1.
