Procedure

To a 100 mL round-bottomed flask was added methyl 4-(3-chloro-1,4-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-5-yl)-2-thiophenecarboxylate (2.15 g, 7.94 mmol) in Tetrahydrofuran (THF) (30 ml). 6N NaOH (30 mL, 180 mmol) was added slowly and the reaction stirred at 70° C. overnight. The reaction was cooled to room temperature, partitioned between CHCl3 and H2O and the pH of the aqueous layer adjusted to ˜3 by the addition of 6N HCl. The layers were separated, the organic layer dried with Na2SO4 and solvent removed affording the title compound (1.35 g, 5.26 mmol, 66%) which was used in the next step without further purification LC-MS (ES) m/z=257 (M+H)+.
