Reaction Steps

5N aqueous solution of NaOH (2 mL) was added to stirred solution of ethyl 5-(2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-3-carboxylate (50 mg, 0.134 mmol) in a mixture of MeOH (4 mL) and THF (4 mL) and continued stirring at 80° C. for 4 h. The reaction mixture was concentrated under reduced pressure to afford the crude product. The crude product thus obtained was diluted with cold water, acidified with concentrated HCl solution to obtain a solid precipitate. This solid precipitate was filtered and dried well to afford 18 mg of 5-(2-(2,5-difluorophenyl)pyrrolidin-1-yl)pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyridine-3-carboxylic acid as off white solid.
