Reaction Steps

To a stirred solution 3-hydrazino-N-methoxy-4-methyl-benzamide 2 (116 mg, estimated 0.14 mmol) in EtOH (10 ml) was added 2-(3-iodo-benzoyl)-3-phenylamino-acrylonitrile 3 (59 mg, 0.14 mmol, preparation: International Patent Application Publication No. WO 02/57101 A1, pg. 84) and mixture was heated (bath T=65-70° C.) for 4 hr, when additional 3-hydrazino-N-methoxy-4-methyl-benzamide 2 (80 mg, 0.11 mmol) was added and the mixture was heated at the same temperature for 27 hr. It was cooled to room temperature, concentrated and redissolved in EtOAc before it was washed with water and brine, dried over Na2SO4, concentrated to give a crude semisolid. The mixture was then purified by flash chromatography, eluting with 1:1 EtOAc/hexanes to remove impurities then 100% EtOAc give 3-[5-amino-4-(3-iodo-benzoyl)-pyrazol-1-yl]-N-methoxy-4-methyl-benzamide 4 as an off-white solid (38 mg, 0.08 mmol, 55%).
