Reaction Steps

Add ethyl acetoacetate (128 g, 0.98 mol) dropwise to an acetic acid solution (500 mL) of 5-methyl-2H-pyrazol-3-ylamine (100 g, 0.95 mol), keeping the temperature at 25-28° C. Heat the mixture at reflux for 10 h and then cool to room temperature. Add the reaction to tert-butyl methyl ether (5 L) cooled to 5° C., keeping the temperature below 10° C.
