Sodium hydride → HCID 67078557, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

NaH (0.082 g, 2.06 mmol, 60% suspension in mineral oil) was added portionwise to a cold (0° C.) solution of 5-bromo-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine (0.204 g, 1.03 mmol) in dry THF (10 mL). The reaction mixture was stirred at 0° C. for 10 minutes before 2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxymethyl chloride (0.31 mL, 0.292 mmol) was added dropwise via a syringe. The reaction mixture was left at room temperature overnight. The reaction mixture was diluted with ethyl acetate (50 mL) and carefully quenched with water (10 mL). The aqueous layer was separated and extracted with ethyl acetate (3×50 mL). The combined organic layers were dried, filtered and concentrated. The crude product was purified by column chromatography, eluting with hexanes/ethyl acetate (50:1) to give 5-bromo-1-((2-(trimethylsilyl)ethoxy)methyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b]pyridine (0.146 g, 43%) as an oil.
