Procedure
Ethyl 3-n-propylpyrazole-5-carboxylate (8.0 g, 43.0 mmol), 4-bromobenzyl bromide (11.0 g, 43.0 mmol) and potassium carbonate (5.9 g, 43.0 mmol) were dissolved in DMF (433 mL, 5590 mmol). The resulting suspension was stirred at room temperature over approximately 48 hours. The material was concentrated, then diluted with aqueous NaHCO3 and diethyl ether. The aqueous layer was further extracted with diethyl ether. The combined organics were dried over MgSO4, filtered and concentrated. The residue was purified using flash chromatography (1st 40:1 hexanes/EtOAc; 2nd 5:1 hexanes/EtOAc). The two isomers were separated and analyzed by NMR and NOE: 1-(4-bromobenzyl)-5-propyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester (5.7 g) and 2-(4-bromobenzyl)-5-propyl-2H-pyrazole-3-carboxylic acid ethyl ester.
