Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of ethyl 5-butyl-1-[(2'-cyanobiphenyl-4-yl)methyl]pyrazole-3-carboxylate (730 mg) in dimethylformamide (10 ml) were added sodium azide (1.3 g) and ammonium chloride (1.07 g) and the mixture was stirred at 110°-115° C. for 72 hours. Insoluble materials were filtered off, and the filtrate was concentrated to dryness. To the residue were added 0.5 N-hydrochloric acid (40 ml) and ether (100 ml) for partitioning, and the organic layer was washed with water, dried, and concentrated to dryness. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel to give the desired product as a colorless powder (470 mg, 58%).
