Reaction Conditions

Reaction Steps

To a solution of 3-(3,3-difluorocyclobutyl)-3-oxopropanenitrile (12.5 g, 78.6 mmol) in EtOH (250 mL) was added hydrazine hydrate (5.9 g, 117.9 mmol) and the resulting mixture was stirred at 75° C. overnight. After concentrating the reaction mixture in vacuo, the residue was redissolved in EtOAc (500 mL) and washed with satd. aq. NaHCO3. The aqueous layer was extracted with EtOAc and the combined extracts washed with brine (100 mL), dried (Na2SO4), filtered and concentrated in vacuo. The crude product was purified by SiO2 chromatography eluting with DCM/MeOH (10:1) to afford 3.46 g (39%) of 5-(3,3-difluoro-cyclobutyl)-1H-pyrazol-3-ylamine as a light yellow solid: 1H NMR (400 MHz, DMSO-do): δ 11.20 (br s, 1H), 5.23 (s, 1H), 4.65 (br s, 2H), 3.16-3.13 (m, 1H), 2.88-2.84 (m, 2H), 2.64-2.57 (m, 2H); MS (ESI+) m/z: 174 [M+1]+.
