Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl-5-bromo-4-(bromomethyl)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate (2.1 g, 5.44 mmol, 1 eq) and 2-mercaptoimidazole (0.6 g, 5.98 mmol, 1.1 eq) in ACN (30 mL) is added dry K2CO3 (2.25 g, 16.32 mmol, 3 eq) and the reaction mixture is heated at 85° C. for 1 h. The reaction mixture is diluted with DCM and filtered. The filtrate is concentrated and the residue is partitioned between DCM/water. The organic layer is dried over Na2SO4 and concentrated to afford the title compound. 1H NMR (DMSO-d6, 400 MHz): δ 12.29 (bs, 1H), 7.59-7.53 (m, 5H), 7.16 (d, J=1.4 Hz, 1H), 6.94 (d, J=1.4 Hz, 1H), 4.28-4.26 (m, 2H), 4.19 (s, 2H), 1.29 (t, J=7.7 Hz, 3H).
