Reaction Steps

2-Methylpyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-5-carboxylic acid (723 mg) was dissolved in 10% sulfuric acid/ethanol (20 ml) and the mixture was refluxed under heating for 2.5 hr. The reaction mixture was neutralized under ice-cooling, extracted with ethyl acetate and dried over magnesium sulfate. The residue was concentrated to dryness under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography (hexane/ethyl acetate=4:1) to give the objective compound (707 mg) as a pale-brown powder.
