Reaction Steps

Sodium (0.68 g) was dissolved in ethanol and 1-cyclopentyl-3-ethyl-5-amino-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxamide (3.0 g, 13.5 mmol), followed by ethyl glycolate (2.8 g, 27 mmol) were added. The reaction mixture was refluxed overnight, the ethanol was stripped and water, followed by 2N HCl were added to the residue. A precipitate formed which was collected by filtration, washed with saturated NaHCO3, and then water. The product was recrystallized from ethyl acetate, then ether to afford 0.83 g of 1-cyclopentyl-3-ethyl-6-(hydroxymethyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-one, m.p. 183°-184° C.
