Cesium carbonate → 3-Iodo-1-{[2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy]methyl}-1H-indazole-5-carbaldehyde

Participants

Reaction Steps

21.6 g (79.5 mmol) 3-iodo-1H-indazole-5-carbaldehyde (Example 3A), dissolved in DMF (100 ml), and 31.1 g (95.4 mmol) cesium carbonate were slowly treated with 15.9 g (95.4 mmol) 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxymethyl chloride at 0° C. The mixture was warmed to room temperature, and stirring was continued for 12 h. The solids were then filtered off, and the filtrate was evaporated to dryness yielding the title compound (26.4 g, 82% of th.).
