Participants

Reaction Steps

A solution of ethyl 1-(2-hydroxyethyl)-5-(2-hydroxy-2-methylpropyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate (24.6 g, 95.9 mmol) in THF (191 mL) was cooled to 0° C. Sodium hydride (4.6 g of a 60% dispersion in mineral oil, 110 mmol) was added, and iodomethane (6.6 mL, 105 mmol) was added dropwise over a period of ten minutes. The reaction was allowed to warm to ambient temperature and stirred for six hours. The work-up procedure described in Part B of Example 1255 was followed to provide ethyl 5-(2-hydroxy-2-methylpropyl)-1-(2-methoxyethyl)-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxylate as a light brown oil.
