Procedure

A solution of 1-difluoromethyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid (CAS [925179-02-8]) (500 mg, 3.1 mmol) in methanol (18 ml) was cooled to 0° C. and treated with sulfuric acid (98%, 0.2 ml, 3.1 mmol). The mixture was heated to reflux for 2 hours, cooled to 23° C. and concentrated at reduced pressure. The residue was partitioned between ethyl acetate and water, the organic layer was washed with water until the water phase showed a neutral pH, dried and evaporated to give the title compound (535 mg) as a colorless liquid which was used without further purification. MS (ISP): m/z=177.1 [M+H]+.
