Reaction Steps

Methyl-4-[6-(difluoromethoxy)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidin-3-yl]-5-methylthiophene-2-carboxylate (0.916 g, 2.70 mmol) was dissolved in THF (4 mL). 1 M KOH in MeOH (12.0 mL, 12.0 mmol) was added and the reaction heated to 40° C. for 16 h. After the hydrolysis was complete, treated with 1N HCl and the resulting solids were filtered, washed with water and dried to afford the title compound (0.568 g, 1.75 mmol). LRMS (APCI) calc'd for (C13H9F2N3O3S) [M+H]+, 326.0; found 326.0.
