Reaction Steps

To a solution of 4-methoxy-1-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid (compound 280.4, 5 g, 18.4 mmol) in N,N-dimethylformamide (50 mL) were added EDC.HCl (7 g, 36.5 mmol), NH4Cl (1.97 g, 36.8 mmol) and 4-dimethylaminopyridine (8.95 g, 73.3 mmol). The mixture was stirred for 2 h at room temperature, then warmed to 50° C. for 3 h. The reaction mixture was quenched with 30 mL of NH4Cl (sat). The aqueous phase was extracted with 2×100 mL of ethyl acetate. The combined organic layers were washed with 3×100 mL of NH4Cl (sat), dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel chromatography with ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (1:5) as the eluent to furnish 1.3 g (26%) of the title compound.
