Potassium Carbonate → 4-Ethynyl-1-(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)-1H-pyrazole

Participants

Reaction Steps

1-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethyl)-4-((trimethylsilyl)ethynyl)-1H-pyrazole (Preparation 147, 1.19 g) was dissolved in methanol (7 ml) and potassium carbonate (30 mg) was added. The reaction was stirred at room temperature for 3.5 hours. The methanol was evaporated and the residue taken up in dichloromethane (20 ml) and filtered through a plug of silica eluting with DCM to afford the title compound (326 mg, 53%). 1H-NMR (CDCl3, 500 MHz): δ 3.06 (s, 1H), 4.70 (q, J=8.20 Hz, 2H), 7.69 (s, 1H), 7.70 (s, 1H). 19F-NMR (CDCl3, 470.385 MHz): −71.69
