Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(4-Fluoro-phenyl)-1H-indazole-4-carboxylic acid (6-trimethylsilanylethynyl-pyridin-3-ylmethyl)-amide (70.0 mg, 0.158 mmol) was dissolved in THF (1.0 mL) and treated with a 1 M solution of TBAF in THF (0.16 mL, 0.16 mmol) at room temperature. The solution was stirred for 2 hours and then diluted with diethyl ether (10 mL) and quenched with water (10 mL). The aqueous layers were extracted with diethyl ether (3×5 mL). The combined organic layers were washed with brine (10 mL), dried over MgSO4 and concentrated. The crude product was purified by silica gel chromatography eluting with a gradient of 0-70% ethyl acetate in hexanes to afford the title compound as a white solid.
