Sodium Methoxide → 4-{5-[2-Methoxy-7-methyl-8-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-6-yl]-pyrazol-1-yl}-benzonitrile

Participants

Reaction Steps

A cloudy solution of 4-{5-[2-chloro-7-methyl-8-(3-trifluoromethyl-phenyl)-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridin-6-yl]-pyrazol-1-yl}-benzonitrile (Int. 19, 22 mg, 0.046 mmol) and NaOMe (25% Wt, 0.75 mL, 3.3 mmol) in MeOH (0.75 mL) was heated at 100° C. for 30 mins using microwave irradiation. The cooled reaction mixture was evaporated in vacuo preparative TLC (20×20 cm×1 mm) eluting with 50% EtOAc in cyclohexane to give the title compound as a white solid (6 mg).
