Diisopropylethylamine → 7-{[4-(azetidine-1-carbonyl)-2-methyl-2H-pyrazole-3-carbonyl]-amino}-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester

Participants

Reaction Steps

A mixture of ethyl 7-amino-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-2-carboxylate (540 mg, 2.62 mmol), 4-(azetidine-1-carbonyl)-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-5-carboxylic acid (548 mg, 2.62 mmol), propylphosphonic anhydride (50% in ethyl acetate, 3.86 ml, 6.55 mmol) and diisopropylethylamine (1.37 ml, 7.86 mmol) in tetrahydrofurane (10 ml) is refluxed for 18 hours. The solvent is evaporated and the residue triturated with sat. aqueous sodium hydrogencarbonate solution. The precipitated solid is collected by filtration, washed several times with water and dried affording 7-{[4-(azetidine-1-carbonyl)-2-methyl-2H-pyrazole-3-carbonyl]-amino}-[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-2-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (665 mg, 63.9%) as a light brown solid. mp.: 252-5° C. MS: m/z=398.2 (M+H+).
