4-bromo-N-methoxy-N,1-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide → (4-bromo-1-methyl-1H-pyrazol-3-yl)(4-chlorophenyl)methanone

Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of compound 4-bromo-N-methoxy-N,1-dimethyl-1H-pyrazole-3-carboxamide (1.0 g, 4 mmol) in anhydrous tetrahydrofuran (20 mL) under nitrogen atmosphere was added (4-chlorophenyl)magnesium bromide (8 mL) in tetrahydrofuran (1 M) at 0° C., The resulting mixture was stirred for 2 h at room temperature. The reaction was quenched by saturated solution of ammonium chloride, and dichloromethane (100 mL) was added, the separated organic layer was dried over anhydrous sodium sulfate and concentrated in vacuum. The residue was purified by flash chromatography eluting with petroleum ether/ethyl acetate=5:1 to give the titled product as a white solid (1.0 g, 84%). LC/MS m/z 298 [M+H]+; 1H NMR (300 MHz, CDCl3) δ 8.10 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H), 7.53 (s, 1H), 7.43 (d, J=9 Hz, 2H), 3.99 (s, 3H).
