Acetaldehyde → N-[3-(4-Chloro-2-methyl-2H-pyrazol-3-yl)-4-(2-ethylamino-2-methyl-propoxy)-phenyl]-3-trifluoromethyl-benzamide

Participants

Reaction Steps

Sodium triacetoxyborohydride (34.2 mg, 161 μmol) was added to a solution of N-(4-(2-amino-2-methylpropoxy)-3-(4-chloro-2-methyl-2H-pyrazol-3-yl)phenyl)-3-(trifluoromethyl)benzamide (53.8 mg, 115 μmol) and acetaldehyde (5.08 mg, 115 μmol) in THF (0.5 mL), and the mixture was stirred at room temperature. After 4 hours, the reaction was quenched with saturated sodium bicarbonate and extracted with dichloromethane. The extract was evaporated to dryness, the residue was redissolved in methanol, and the product was isolated by preparative HPLC. The trifluoroacetate salt was dissolved in a mixture of ethyl acetate and saturated sodium bicarbonate. The organic layer was washed with brine, dried with sodium sulfate, and evaporated to dryness to afford the title compound (12.5 mg, 22%).
