Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution of 1-cyclopentyl-3-ethyl-6-oxo-5-phenyl-4,6-dihydro-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-c]pyrrole (0.17 g, 0.58 mmole) in anhydrous ether (15 ml) was added lithium aluminum hydride (0.17 g, 4.6 mmole). The majority of the ether (12-13 ml) was then removed by distillation, and the remaining mixture diluted with toluene (25 ml) and heated to reflux over 24 hours. The mixture was cooled to 0° C. and cautiously treated with ice. The resulting mixture was filtered through celite, dried over sodium sulfate, filtered and concentrated under reduced pressure. The crude residue was chromatographed on a silica column using 1:9 ethyl acetate/hexane as eluent to give 100 mg of a colorless oil. 1H NMR (250 MHz, CDCl3) δ1.26 (t, J=7.6 Hz, 3H), 1.65-2.25 (m, 8H), 2.67 (q, J=7.6 Hz, 2H), 4.35 (s, 2H), 4.45 (s, 2H), 4.53 (pentet, J=7.5 Hz, 1H), 6.61 (d, J=8.1 Hz, 2H), 6.74 (t, J=7.4 Hz, 1H), 7.29 (dd, J=7.5 and 8.4 Hz 2H); MS m/z 282.
