Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

A dry 25 mL flask was charged with 5-Chloro-1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid (0.180 g, 0.873 mmol) and thionyl chloride (10 mL) and allowed to stir at 79° C. for 2 h. The thionyl chloride was then removed by rotary evaporation. The crude acid chloride dissolved in THF (5 mL). 6-(3-Amino-benzoyl)-1,3-dihydro-indol-2-one (as prepared in Example 40, 0.200 g, 0.794 mmol) was added to the THF solution of the acid chloride, and the mixture was allowed to reflux for 2 h. The reaction mixture was then allowed to cool to room temperature and the precipitate was filtered and washed with THF (˜5 mL) affording pure 5-Chloro-1,3-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carboxylic acid [3-(2-oxo-2,3-dihydro-1H-indole-6-carbonyl)-phenyl]-amide (0.233 g, 0.571 mmol, 72%).
