Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

220 mg of cyclohexylacetic acid was dissolved in 10 ml of tetrahydrofuran. While this solution was being cooled at −10° C., 160 mg of N-methylmorpholine and 220 mg of isobutyl chloroformate were added thereto with stirring. The resulting mixture was stirred for 15 minutes. After the addition of 127 mg of 3-amino-5-(4-fluorophenyl)-4-(4-pyridyl)pyrazole, the mixture was stirred for 30 minutes and then stirred at room temperature for 4 days. After the addition of water, the reaction mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. After the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. After the resulting residue was dissolved in 10 ml of methanol, 1 ml of 2N sodium hydroxide was added thereto, followed by stirring at room temperature for 90 minutes. Then, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. After the addition of water, this mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. After the organic layer was dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the solvent was distilled off under reduced pressure. The resulting residue was purified by column chromatography using 30 g of silica gel [with an elution solvent comprising chloroform-methanol (30:1)]. Thus, 55 mg (29% yield) of the title compound was obtained as colorless crystals.
