Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-[5-(4-allylamino-phenyl)-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]-2-m-tolyl-propionic acid ethyl ester (Example 94, Step A; 70 mg, 0.15 mmol) in ethanol (1 mL) was added 10% Pd/C (26 mg) and methanesulfonic acid (0.01 mL, 0.15 mmol, 1 equiv). The mixture was stirred at 65° C. for 2 h. The catalyst was removed by filtering the reaction mixture through a CELITE® pad, and the pad was rinsed with EtOH (1.5 mL). The combined filtrates were concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was dissolved in 1:1 THF/H2O (1.5 mL), and LiOH was added (10 mg, 0.45 mmol, 3 equiv). After 3 h at 45° C., the mixture was purified by preparative reversed-phase HPLC (acetonitrile/water) to afford the title compound (26 mg, 35%) along with 3-[5-(4-amino-phenyl)-1-p-tolyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl]-2-m-tolyl-propionic acid (20 mg, 35%). HPLC: Rt=3.18 (Method A). MS (ESI): mass calculated for C29H25N3O2, 447.19; m/z found, 448.2 [M+H]+. 1H NMR (400 MHz, CDCl3): 8.43 (d, J=8.5 Hz, 1H), 8.25 (d, J=8.8 Hz, 1H), 7.85 (d, J=1.7 Hz, 1H), 7.68 (dd, J=8.3, 4.8 Hz, 1H), 7.59 (dd, J=8.8, 1.7 Hz, 1H), 7.26-7.23 (m, 2H), 7.12 (s, 4H), 6.42 (s, 1H), 4.17 (dd, J=9.8, 5.3 Hz, 1H), 3.58 (dd, J=14.9, 9.8 Hz, 1H), 3.17 (dd, J=14.9, 5.3 Hz, 1H), 2.36 (s, 3H).
