Dimethylformamide → HCID 11551131, compound

Participants

Reaction Steps

5-[1-(4-Fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazol-5-yl]-2-methoxyphenol (50.0 mg, 0.176 mmol), 5 mL of N,N-dimethylformamide and methyl iodide (16.4 uL, 0.264 mmol) were combined in a vial and stirred at room temperature overnight. An additional 0.5 mL of methyl iodide was added and stirring continued for 2 days at room temperature and then 10 mL of ethyl acetate and 10 mL of water were added. The organic layer was separated, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by column chromatography on silica gel eluting with a gradient of 10% ethyl acetate in hexanes to 50% ethyl acetate in hexanes over 20 minutes to give 5-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)-1-(4-fluorophenyl)-1H-pyrazole (25 mg, 48%) as a white solid. LC/MS (EI) tR 4.14, m/z 299.1 (M++1). 1H NMR (CDCl3 300 MHz) δ 3.7 (s, 3H); 3.9 (s, 3H); 6.5 (s, 1H); 6.7 (s, 1H); 7.0 (s, 2H); 7.1 (m, 2H); 7.3 (m, 2H); 7.7 (s, 1H).
