Reaction Steps

A solution of trifluoroacetic anhydride (0.996 mL, 7.05 mmol) in dichloromethane (15 mL) was added slowly to a 0° C. solution of 5-[(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)methyl]-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (1.67 g, 5.87 mmol) and triethylamine (1.78 g, 17.6 mmol) in dichloromethane (15 mL). The resulting solution was stirred for 30 minutes, and water (50 mL) was added. The work-up procedure described in Part D of Example 64 was followed. Hexane (100 mL) was added to the resulting off-white solid, which was isolated by filtration and washed with hexane. The resulting light-brown solid was purified by chromatography using a HORIZON HPFC system (40M cartridge, eluting with 1% to 10% CMA in chloroform) to provide 1.57 g of 5-[(1,3-dioxo-1,3-dihydro-2H-isoindol-2-yl)methyl]-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carbonitrile as an off-white solid.
