Procedure
A mixture of 3-hydroxy-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde (1.88 g), chloromethyl methyl ether (0.835 mL), N,N-diisopropylethylamine (2.09 mL) and tetrahydrofuran (30 mL) was stirred at room temperature for 2 hrs. Saturated aqueous sodium hydrogen carbonate was poured into the reaction mixture, and the mixture was extracted with ethyl acetate. The ethyl acetate layer was washed with saturated brine, dried over anhydrous magnesium sulfate and concentrated. The residue was washed with diisopropyl ether-hexane to give 3-(methoxymethoxy)-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbaldehyde as white crystals (1.34 g, yield 58%). Recrystallization from ethyl acetate-hexane gave colorless prism crystals. melting point: 106-107° C.
